Examining Levels of Involvement in the Early Years

This book explores the theory and rationale behind using young children’s levels of involvement as a tool for enhancing their experiential learning in diverse settings. Examining the practical implications of using the scales within a setting, it uses case studies from real world settings to investigate children’s deep level learning capabilities and to reflect on the engaging possibilities this presents. Connecting levels of involvement with local, national, international and theoretical approaches it extends levels of involvement to adult practitioners to investigate the opportunities the scales provide for self-evaulation and continued professional learning.
