Development of a Tribally-led Gardening Curriculum for Indigenous Preschool Children: The FRESH Study

Comportamento da infiltração de água no solo em parque urbano

The objective of this work is to evaluate the infiltration capacity and to determine the hydrodynamic parameters of three surfaces (community use, children's recreation and gardens) in an urban park in Recife/PE. The Beerkan methodology was used to determine the parameters of the water retention curve and the hydraulic conductivity curve from 24 infiltration tests. Besides that, the surfaces’ water balance subjected to 365 days of rainfall was simulated with the aid of the Hydrus 1D model. The garden areas presented the higher values for maximum infiltration rates (553.58 mm.h-1), followed by children's recreation areas (116.70 mm.h-1) and and community use area (18.75 mm.h-1). The areas’ predominant textures had no direct correlation with the saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ks), presenting values between 25.38 and 306.65 mm.h -1 for sandy loam soils (gardens); 7.67 and 542.2 mm.h-1 for sandy clay loam (gardens and community use); and 4.07 and 256.86 mm.h -1 for loamy sand (recreation). The water retention capacity was lower in the gardens, with opposite behavior in the community use areas. The Hydrus’ simulations resulted in higher values of runoff and evaporation in the gardens. They showed that there is no difference in the values of cumulative infiltration in the three areas.

Un jardín para la infancia. Metáfora comeniana recreada en nuestros tiempos

El Jardín de Niños como tal, bajo el nombre Kindergarten, se introdujo en México como una de las novedades de la modernidad porfiriana, a través de las cuales se querían revertir las prácticas que existían en relación con la conducción de infantes. La visita de dos maestras mexicanas con el móvil de documentar la existencia de las opciones que se practicaban en Estados Unidos con muy buenos resultados las puso en contacto con programas, materiales y experiencias que procedían de Friedrich Fröbel (1782-1864) y habían sido ampliamente difundidas en países europeos. El propósito de este texto es marcar los orígenes de esta institución, el Jardín de Niños, más allá del siglo XIX en una metáfora del pensador moravo Juan Amós Comenio (1572-1670) en el contexto de las reformas religiosas. Estructuro el artículo en tres ejes: 1) Notas sobre las aportaciones de la metáfora como herramienta analítica; 2) En torno al establecimiento del Jardín de Niños como institución; 3) Juan Amos Comenio y la metáfora del jardín de niños

Garden affordances for social learning, play, and for building nature–child relationship

This study examines the physical qualities of a garden environment and the behavior they bring out in 7- to 12-year-olds suburban children. The study was conducted in a summer day camp in 2008–2010 in the school children's garden of Kumpula, in the city of Helsinki, Finland. This qualitative research is based on a text-based content analysis of the camp leader's weekly group reports, observational notes, and photos from three years of field work. The garden fostered social interactions by offering plentiful materials in a varied space. The multiple affordances for a variety of actions in a garden made it basically a child-friendly environment. Consequently, activities in a garden environment appeared to promote the children's Zone of proximal development (ZPD). Therefore adults planning and conducting such activities should take into consideration the child's way of learning from nature and connecting to it through vigorous play. Recommendations are provided for planning garden environments and activity for children.

Literature in the Garden Curriculum Effects on Life Skills of Children

Children's gardens have recently been shown to increase life skills. The purpose of this study was to assess the effects that gardening/plant activities from the Junior Master Gardener curriculum, Literature in the Garden, have on children's life skills. The life skills examined were leadership, teamwork, self-understanding, decision-making skills, and communication skills. About 130 third-grade students from a Lee County, AL, school participated in the study. Students were equally divided into control and experimental groups, and each student was given the youth life skills inventory (YLSI) as a pre- and posttest. The experimental group participated in eight gardening/plant activities after the pretest, whereas the control group did not complete the activities. No significant differences were found between pretests and posttests for teamwork, self-understanding, decision making, communication, and overall life skills. Significant decreases from pretest to posttest were found on leadership skills for the experimental group. Several trends were observed with students who read more for fun, read more each week, and read more garden books generally increasing in life skills.

야외체력단련기구 이용현황과 개선방안에 관한 연구 - 동탄신도시 근린생활권 근린공원을 중심으로 -

본 연구의 목적은 공원을 조성하거나 또는 기존의 공원을 재정비할 때 생활체육시설인 야외체력단련기구에 대한 전반적인 이용만족도를 높이기 위한 것이다. 이를 위해 동탄 신도시에 소재한 근린생활권 근린공원에 설치된 야외체력단련 기구를 이용하는 남 녀 150명을 대상으로 이용만족도를 조사하고 분석하였다. 동탄신도시의 공원 중 야외체력단련기구가 설치된 6개의 공원에서 근린생활권 근린공원에 해당하는 개나리공원, 손바닥공원, 큰재봉공원을 대상지로 선정하였다. 이용만족변수에 대한 요인분석을 실시한 결과, 총 4개의 요인이 추출되었다. 그 내용은 주 시설 요인(공원내 적절한 위치 공원과의 연계 배치 야외체력단련기구의 종류 수량), 차양 요인(차양시설, 식재), 관리 요인(관리상태 보수상태), 부대시설 요인(포장 조명시설)으로 정의할 수 있다. 전체만족도와 요인의 회귀분석 결과, 주 시설 요인이 만족도에 가장 큰 영향을 미치고 있었다. 이는 주 시설 요인이 근린공원 야외체력단련기구 만족도를 좌우한다고 할 수 있다. 대상지별 요인에 대한 차이 검증을 통해 주 시설 요인인 공원내 적절한 위치 공원과의 연계 배치 야외체력단련기구의 종류 수량에서 종류와 수량이 많다고 야외체력단련기구의 전체만족도가 높아지는 것이 아니라, 주 시설 요인에 포함된 공원내 적절한 위치 공원과의 연계 배치의 만족도 또한 높아야 전체만족도가 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 이상과 같은 결과를 감안하면 추후 계획되는 공원의 야외체력단련기구에서는 종류와 수량의 보충뿐만 아니라 공원내 적절한 위치, 공원과의 연계성, 배치를 고려한 공원 계획이 바람직할 것으로 생각된다. The purpose of this study is to increase the usage of satisfaction of outdoor exercise equipment installed at parks when plans and designs are made for renovation or formation of parks. In order to do so, the study surveyed and analyzed the usage satisfaction of 150 men and women who use outdoor exercise equipment in neighborhood parks located in Dongtan New Town. There were four factors that affect the variables of usage satisfaction. They can be defined as the main facility factor, awning factor, maintenance factor, and additional facility factor. From the result regression analysis of the total satisfaction rate and the factors, the main facility factor was the most influential of the variables. This could indicate that the facility factor affects the satisfactory rate of outdoor exercise equipment. This research is done only with the examples of neighborhood parks, so it limits the possibility of analysis of seasonal use. It is necessary to conduct analysis research of parks which installed many outdoor exercise equipment, such as a vest-pocket park, children's garden, and pedestrian/urban/metropolitan neighborhood parks.

‘In the best interests of the child’: juggling the geography of children's gardens (between adult agendas and children's needs)

This review paper presents literature, particularly in children's geographies, in support of the proposition that the rationales for the current children's garden movement flourishing particularly in the United States, albeit well-intentioned, continue to be dominated by adult discourses acting ‘in the best interests of the child’. The paper concludes that broadening the debate on ‘children and gardens’ through inclusion of research that focuses on children's competence and empowerment offers a different perspective of what children might want from these spaces. This highlights new directions for research on children's gardens which would focus this garden typology more on children's needs than adult agendas, and therefore contribute positively to development of these gardens as sustainable environments for children's learning and enjoyment of nature.

Children's Gardens: Answering the Call of the Child?

gardens, especially in the United States over the last 15 years, and are an important source of nature interactions for children inhabiting built spaces. However despite subscribing to egalitarian aims of providing child-centred environments and lofty purposes such as inspiring a love of natural environments in children, this paper proposes that, while well-intentioned, they lag behind current best practice in their general lack of opportunities for children to participate, beyond consultation, in their design. The paper suggests reasons for this and presents and critiques examples of processes followed in some children's gardens. By relating these to current participative research and the new social studies of childhood, this paper adds to the growing discourse on participation of children in the design of their outdoor environments. Some concluding recommendations contribute to a pathway towards co-construction with children for practitioners of outdoor spaces in the built environment.
