CONNECTED, COLLABORATIVE, AND IN THE COMMUNITY: HOW WE OPTIMISE ALL CHILDREN’S LANGUAGE LEARNING.
ABSTRACT:
When children start school, they come with vastly different learning experiences, influenced by their early home environment, the community in which they live, and the early childhood education and care programs they have participated in. The evidence regarding these early developmental differences provides a comprehensive set of factors that both contribute to early language vulnerability and the potential targets for tailored early interventions.
Connected and collaborative health, community, and early childhood education services embedded in communities, provide the best model for equity of access to all children, wherever they live and whatever their circumstances.
In this presentation Professor Eadie will i) discuss the importance of continuous, collaborative, and cumulative surveillance to document individual and contextual factors that impact children’s language development; and ii) provide evidence of the high-quality early childhood learning experiences that have a significant impact on children’s language learning, particularly in the very early years and especially for vulnerable children.
pROFESSOR TRICIA EADIE’S BioGRAPHY:
Professor Tricia Eadie is the Director of the REEaCh Centre (Research in Effective Education in Early Childhood) in the Graduate School of Education at the University of Melbourne. Tricia’s research is characterised by multi‐disciplinary efforts to understand young children’s developmental pathways during preschool through to school and the evidence‐based learning experiences and interactions which most influence children’s outcomes.
Tricia has been a Chief Investigator with the Early Language in Victoria Study since its inception in 2003 and is leading the current ELVS project focused on transition from school and post-education outcomes. Tricia has led longitudinal projects that cross the boundaries of education and health with a focus on universal interventions which enable optimal outcomes for all children irrespective of their circumstances. This research has contributed to understanding the role early childhood education can play in addressing equity gaps in Australian communities.
