Written by an international group of scholars from Australia, Brazil, China, Denmark, Finland, Greenland, India, Norway and the UK, the chapters offer a diverse set of case studies. The topics and themes covered include transitions in outdoor playtime, the transition to daycare, compassion in kindergarten, learning with fathers, transitions of Chinese traditional culture and disability. The chapters are organised into two parts, the first part covering macro transitions and the second covering micro-genetic transitions. The contributors show how both macro and micro-genetic transitions influence children's everyday lives, and how these different transitions open up new possibilities for play, learning and development. The contributors draw on Vygotsky's cultural historical theory and the understanding that children's cultural formation takes form in a dialectic relation between children's interests and motives and the institutional settings they participate in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMarilyn Fleer \u003c\/b\u003eis Laureate Professor and Foundation Chair of Early Childhood Education and Development at Monash University, Australia, and Honorary Research Fellow in the Department of Education at the University of Oxford, UK. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eMariane Hedegaard \u003c\/b\u003eis Professor Emerita in Developmental Psychology at the University of Copenhagen, Denmark, and Senior Research Fellow in the Department of Education at the University of Oxford, UK. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eElin Eriksen Ødegaard\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor and Director of the Kindergarten Knowledge Centre for Systemic Research on Diversity and Sustainable Futures at Western Norway University of Applied Sciences, Norway, and Visiting Professor at the University of Tromso, Norway. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eHanne Værum Sørensen\u003c\/b\u003e is Associate Professor of Pedagogy and Education at VIA University College, Aarhus, Denmark.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 240\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 18, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53343112429875,"sku":"9781350199460","price":80.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/zFS7se0I4L9781350199460.webp?v=1778705711","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/qualitative-studies-of-exploration-in-childhood-education-cultures-of-play-and-learning-in-transition-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
