The exchange group on the practice of open work meets colleagues from Swedish pre-school services
Job shadowing is a particular type of training in which a person follows and closely observes another person while doing their job.
5 teachers, 5 educators and 4 pedagogists from municipal child services 0-6 left for the first exchange in three schools from 1 to 6 years old in the Swedish city of Norrköping, two hours from Stockholm.
The job shadowing activity was proposed to a group of representatives of the services involved in the practice of open work and is linked to the predetermined objectives, namely the development of innovative practices for a perspective of change that starts from the daily life of services, where girls and boys are the real protagonists. It is a matter of realizing the concept of inclusion, offering learning environments as a mirror of an open and democratic society, in which anyone can participate and contribute: thus building more flexible and inclusive services, supporting the desire of girls and boys to discover the world through practical experiences in child services, as in a real society.
Teachers and educators took a direct part in school life in Swedish services, experiencing educational work firsthand and were able to share reflections on the pedagogical focuses included in the exchange (democratic education, aesthetic education and participation).
The Municipal Zero Services involved are the Carli, Cavazzoni, Coccheri, La Trottola kindergartens; the Anna Serra 2, Ceccarelli, Don Milani, Flora, Mago Merlino kindergartens; the One-Six Pezzoli Service.
The activity took place as part of the RIEPPS project | Research and innovation of educational practices in child services.
