Session Topic: Hybrid Pedagogy
Speaker: Julie Fisher, Chris Pascal and Tony Bertram
This free virtual event is an opportunity to explore with the speakers the concept of 'Hybrid Pedagogy'.
The term 'Hybrid Pedagogy' has been used in recent literature reviews undertaken by the Centre for Research in Early Childhood (CREC) on the EYFS for the DfE (Review of the Evidence: EYFS Early learning Goals, Teaching Content and Pedagogy in Reception Year) and the Welsh Government (Integrated Early Years Systems: A Review of International Evidence), as well as in work CREC have undertaken looking at pedagogic approaches within Europe more widely (for example, the Formosinho's work on participatory pedagogies detailed in Assessment and Evaluation for Transformation in Early Childhood Assessment).
For CREC, these reviews indicated a tension between child-led, play-based pedagogic approaches and adult-led or directed, formal pedagogic approaches and evidence which suggested that a ‘balanced approach’ between these two alternative pedagogies might be more effective in the EYFS. However, CREC's own work had suggested that rather than ‘balance’, a ‘fusion’ in pedagogic approaches was more effective.
