PedPod dialogue with Ingrid Pramling Samuelsson
Manage episode 434314011 series 3569718
What do we need to further develop sustainable pedagogical innovations?
We need skilled teachers who know, for example, if you go back to sustainability, the teacher must know what is it.It's not only to go out to the nature.
It's to how can we make biodiversity visible for children.
How can we connect to the world outside the preschools?
So, I mean, the teacher must have the skill, but not put it on the shoulder of the kids, but be there to be able to point out and communicate with children and give them new experience in the direction we want them to go.
So it's a kind of learning and we need to learn a lot from children.

This is a quote from this episode.
Welcome to the 5th episode of PedPod by EX-PED-LAB. In this episode, I had a dialogue with Ingrid Pramling Samuelsson, a Professor of Early Childhood Education at the University of Gothenburg. Ingrid once held the UNESCO Chair in Early Childhood Education and Sustainable Development and was once the president of OMEP (Organisation Mondiale pour l'Éducation Préscolaire). Her main area of research is early childhood education and early learning environments.
Happy listening! :)
