Figures & data
Figure 1. Framework for documentation of innovative pedagogical approaches.
‘Innovative pedagogy’ refers to approaches that are oriented towards addressing localised barriers in access to early childhood education. These approaches are contributing to changes in attitudes, systems and/or structures.
Information collected from each programme incorporated:
Macro (policy) level
Programme documents/reports; reviews of policy priorities for the programme and/or national context; reviews of context-specific goals, values and purposes.
‘Meso’ (immediate environment) level
Audio/photograph/video footage of the innovation; programme documents/reports; artefacts (children’s work; plans and outlines; other artefacts according to the ‘innovation’ being documented); interviews with key programme staff, to gather information on processes, drivers and supportive factors in implementation.
‘Micro’ (personal) level
Self-reports gathered from key staff via Skype meetings: as above, key members of staff from each case were interviewed as part of the documentation process in order to gather data on processes, drivers and supportive factors in implementation.
