Keynote: Professor Iram Siraj
Why intentional and relational pedagogy best supports children’s learning. To be effective educators – that is, those who make a real difference to children’s development and support their learning – we need to pay attention to both relational and intentional pedagogy. Pedagogy is basically how we ‘teach’ and the environments we create to help young children to learn. In the early years, this is often through modelling, demonstrating, questioning, creating purposeful, experiential and play environments and through high quality interactions; what’s often called process quality. Iram will present evidence from her research over the last 30 years and use video clips to demonstrate excellent practice.
