Abstract

"The role of men in early childhood education and care is crucial for the future of all children growing up in a gender sensitive world. Achieving greater diversity and gender balance in the workforce has proved a challenging goal, despite concerted efforts on the part of individuals, institutions, and governments around the world. Many men remain reluctant to enter the profession, and once they choose this work, many leave. This book explores how men in the field make their career decisions to remain in or leave the profession. Taking a broad international perspective and exploring the role of gender in these career decisions, contributors from around the globe unpack how gender concepts influence men's career trajectories. Through their collaborative research, the team of 17 gender and early childhood researchers investigate various critical and relevant factors such as professionalisation, workplace environment, leadership, day to day interactions in the workplace, societal considerations, internal motivations, agency, masculinities, and critical moments in career decision making. Using cultural, racial, ethnic, and social class lenses to examine men's career decisions over their professional lives, the contributors' unique approach uncovers the complexity of the issue and offers evidence-based recommendations for policy both on national and local levels. These include practical suggestions to directors and managers who care about achieving a gender-mixed workforce. Accessible and enlightening, this is a unique resource for scholars, policy makers, and any others in the education community who support a gender balance the inclusion of men in early childhood education"--

Abstract

In their work as preschool educators and preschool programming leaders, authors Richard K. Cohen, Michele Herold, Katie McKenna, Emily Peluso, and Kelsee Young have experienced firsthand the increased frequency and intensity of disruptive behaviors among early childhood students in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. And they have recognized that the evidence-based ways in which teachers previously intervened to address students' emotional reactions and needs no longer efficiently serve that purpose. The Metacognitive Preschooler: How to Teach Academic, Social, and Emotional Intelligence to Your Youngest Students presents these authors' practical, research-based strategy for meeting students' diverse needs in grades preK-2. Preschool teachers and leaders can easily embed this one metacognitive strategy, called structured SELf-questioning, into their existing curricula and routines to overcome academic and behavioral challenges. The Metacognitive Preschooler provides clear how-to guidance so any preschool educator can use structured SELf-questioning to equip all their students with social-emotional learning (SEL) competencies that will promote success in school and in life.
