A creative process with digital technology is a complex process consisting of traditional non-digital and new digital activities. It is important that educators use different pedagogical strategies when involving young children in the process. However, it is not enough to focus merely on the process – the finished product is also important to the children.
Is there a common Nordic model or a characteristic Nordic approach to evaluation and assessment of quality in early childhood education and care (ECEC)? A new study conducted by FILIORUM – Centre for Research in Early Childhood Education and Care, together with Early Childhood Research Centre at Dublin City University (DCU ECRC), has examined this.
