Which Teacher Training for Early Childhood Educators?

Abstract

Emphasis on reflexivity, in the training of early childhood educators, exposes one both to the risk of devaluing the practical dimension as well as to overestimating the individuality of each reflective practitioner. These risks are high in the training of early childhood education professionals, where educational practices, the professional group and the culture of the service are essential. Which approaches should be used in training for these professions? Montessorian and Piklerian models, professional didactics, interactive pedagogy and training in the field.
