“…The approach underlines the importance of documentation. Through documentation, parents can have an idea of what their children are doing at school with a diary which includes photos taken by the teacher throughout the day and recorded children comments (Edwards, 2002;Thornton & Brunton, 2014). The Creative Curriculum integrates families into education by using a variety of methods in order to enable parents to understand, evaluate and support their children's development.…”

“…Reggio Emilia yaklaşımında bir ebeveynin okula ilişkin ve okulun ebeveyne ilişkin neler bekleyebileceğini tanımlayan "Ebeveyn Hakları", ebeveynlerin okul yapısının bir bölümünde belirli bir rol oynamasından ziyade, okul yapısının bir parçası olmasının önemini anlatır. Okul, çocukları nasıl anladıklarını ve değerlendirdiklerini, ebeveynlere gösterme sorumluluğunun farkındadır (Thornton & Brunton, 2009).…”

Family involvement, an important element of effective early childhood education programs, is crucial for children's learning processes and development. With family involvement, while families have the opportunity of participating and contributing to their children's development and learning processes schools gain unique information about children's interests, needs and experiences. A positive cooperation to be developed between families and schools helps children to integrate home and school lives. The aim of this study is to present the current situation by reviewing the literature in terms of family involvement and discuss and compare the family involvement dimension of the Primary Years Program (PYP), Montessori, Reggio Emilia, Creative Curriculum and Te Whāriki programs, which are early childhood education programs and approaches around the world. For this purpose, a review study has been conducted.

“…It provides a unique concept that links early childhood education to physical settings such as childcare centres and kindergartens (Edwards, Gandini, & Forman, 2012;Thornton & Brunton, 2007;Wurm, 2005). Reggio Emilia suggests that the early childhood environment offers children vital 242 S.Y.…”

Physical environment as a 3-D textbook: design and development of a prototype

The use of the physical environment as a three-dimensional (3-D) textbook is not a common practice in educational facilities design. Previous researches documented that little progress has been made to incorporate environmental education (EE) into architecture, especially among the conventional designers who are often constrained by the budget and building area requirements. This article presents an exploratory project to develop a prototype for the 3-D textbook. The author does not formulate ideas and concept based on the pre-determined specs in a design brief. Instead, the design solution evolved through a qualitative case study conducted at the Green School in Bali, Indonesia. Data were collected through a series of interviews and on-site observations. The qualitative findings uncovered four design features for the 3-D textbook. A prototype was subsequently developed using the design features as a blueprint. The prototype serves as a testing ground for new ideas as well as a platform to promote awareness and acceptance of the 3-D textbook among the practitioners. Consequently, this article attempted a significant proposition to bring together architecture and EE, thus potentially contributing to a field of knowledge that embraces design and education.
