Module 7

Pedagogical Documentation; the What, Why, and How

Documentation makes children’s learning, ideas, thinking and strategies visible, and serves to communicate to others – parents, colleagues, the community – not only what is happening in our setting, but how, and why the documented play or event is important. It is a crucial part of reflective practice and ongoing professional learning for educators, and also a way to revisit past events with children. In this module, through examples, discussion, and hands-on work, participants will:

• Be introduced to the many forms of documentation, and which type to use in which situation
• Understand the difference between display, documentation, and pedagogical documentation
• Discover tools that will assist in developing documentation as a regular part of their day
• Understand the multiple ways in which documentation can be used: Communication, Reflection, Planning-next-steps, Revisiting with Children
