The agency of children as learners – writing as a socio-political act
Journal Title: International Journal of Pedagogy, Innovation and New Technologies - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
Girls and boys express their contribution to the learning community in their own ways. These contributions pose a challenge for pedagogues interested in the evolution of democracy as inconclusive dynamics of intergenerational exchange. Children’s claims as subjects of rights are linked to a concept of positioning in the social structure. Works by Janusz Korczak, Célestine Freinet and Paulo Freire explain this connection between pedagogy and social practices of expression. Reggio and Swedish pedagogues document children’s learning as well. This article examines the pride girls and boys display regarding their learning procedures and standpoints in community.
