Special education in Norwegian early childhood education and care: a document analysis of special education assistance provided to children with language disorders

ABSTRACT This study aims to investigate the characteristics of special educational assistance provided to children with language disorders (LDs) attending ordinary early childhood education and care institutions (ECECs) in Norway, with a focus on objectives for language development and language interventions. An in-depth document analysis of 71 pedagogical documents, such as expert assessments and individual development plans (IDPs), pertaining to four children with LDs was conducted. These documents play a large part in the documentation of the special education provision and were analysed and categorised in line with a hermeneutical approach. The findings show that the objectives and the language interventions recommended by the Educational Psychological Service (EPS) in the expert assessments are general or missing, and the language interventions recommended were seldom tailored to the children’s LDs. This propagates further among the IDPs. The findings further suggest a division in the responsibilities between the different institutions, with the result that the provision given to the children appears fragmented. Finally, the analysed documents reveal a variation in the quality recommended in special education assistance, which implies a need for improvement in both organisation and competence at ECECs and EPS, to be able to provide an integrated practice.

And it was found that there were no sub-factors located in the area of ‘Possible Overkill’. This suggests that efforts to improve ‘understanding of child’ should be considered first in order to improve the fathering practices.

유아교사의 보수에 대한 인식 및 실태와 보수만족이 직무만족도에 미치는 영향

Objectives The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of preschool teachers' perception and actual condition of pay and satisfaction of pay on job satisfaction.
 Methods The subject of the study was an incumbent early childhood teacher working at an early childhood education institution located in a metropolitan area, and 250 copies were distributed and 220 copies were collected. Among them, a total of 183 copies were analyzed, excluding 37 questionnaires that responded unfaithfully. As for the analysis method, SPSS 26 was used to frequency analysis, descriptive statistics, and independent sample T-test. A total of 27 questions were asked about the recognition and actual status of pay, and a tool for measuring job satisfaction of kindergarten teachers developed by Jorde-Bloom(1989) and revised and supplemented by Song Yu-jin(1993) was used.
 Results As a result of the study, early childhood teachers selected for their own career choice because of their self-actualization and love and concern for young children. They perceived the profession as a teacher positively, but perceived that social awareness and treatment were low. In addition, many teachers perceived that the current level of remuneration was not appropriate, and they responded that they knew the type of allowance, but they did not know exactly what allowance to receive. Early childhood teachers were generally satisfied with job satisfaction, and the teachers group satisfied with the current level of remuneration and the unsatisfied teacher group showed statistically significant differences in job satisfaction and sub-factors such as wage promotion, work environment, and relationship with the principal. This can be interpreted as being satisfied with one's job only when appropriate compensation is provided to early childhood teachers.
 Conclusions The results of this study can be used as confirming the perception and actual status of preschool teachers' pay as well as basic data to support early childhood teachers at the institutional and national level through the effect of pay satisfaction on job satisfaction.

Walter benjamin: “infância, uma experiência devastadora”

Built on the dialogue between the processes of institutionalization of childhood and educational practices, this article considers data from a research project that aimed to gather knowledge of the experience of childhood in early childhood education (ECE) settings. The empirical basis of our study is a collection of observational fieldnotes gathered in 21 public ECE institutions that serve the city of Rio de Janeiro. In order to understand children’s experience in these settings, our theoretical framework is supported by a reading of Walter Benjamin's philosophy of childhood, by sources in the sociology and anthropology of childhood, and through an analysis of the political contexts that influence the practices of institutionalizing young children. The quote adopted in this text represents the results of a comparison between the speech and interactions of the children in the schools participating in the research and textual fragments from Benjamin’s “Obras Escolhidas I e II.” We drew on the concept of childhood experience present in the work of this philosopher in order to explore how children experience their childhood within the context of the school environment. When thinking about childhood through the lens of children’s experience, we draw on the legacy attributed by Benjamin to Kant's work on the concept of experience itself. Here, the latter is understood, not just as an event, but as something that unites/brings us together through the intersection of generation, history, and narrative. Regardless of the format of children's institutionalization–that is, whether they attend daycare centers, exclusive early ECE settings, schools or elementary schools that have preschool classes–based on our reading the fieldnotes we conclude that the experience of childhood takes place in the context of relationships with others, with objects, with culture, with society and with nature. Our research showed that, like the child as characterized in the work of Benjamin, the children of our day care centers and schools are attracted by what he calls “debris”and what the latter present to them as possibilities for action. They do not directly reproduce the world of adults; rather, they establish a new relationship with what the world offers them, which is not exactly coherent with that world. What children produce in their interactions is the result of a refined process in which collective and individual experience intersect, with culture as a meeting point.

Improving Higher Order Thinking Skill (Hots) in Early Children Using Picture Story Book

Globalization requires many sectors of life to be ready to compete globally. The application of the HOTS approach is considered an effective approach in growing higher order thinking skills based on nature. The writing of this article is to find out the teacher's strategy in developing higher order thinking skills in children at early childhood education institutions. The research method used in this research is descriptive qualitative, data obtained from observations, interviews and documentation with data analysis techniques using triangulation analysis methods. The results showed that children are often seen as weak individuals and have not been able to learn about social issues. The low ability to think in children is caused by the learning process that has not maximized children to think actively and find solutions to every challenge they face. To develop HOTS during the learning process the teacher must provide opportunities for children to be directly involved in every activity as well as questions that can spark children's thinking.
