Pedagogy is interested in the creation of a life (Delgado Vintimilla, 2019)

Pedagogy, for me, is interested in the creation of a life-not as a model or an ideal, but as an everyday practice that puts thought into action, that is interested not in prescribing a life but in working at a life, becoming studious of it, being interested in its different forms and formations in what it does and what it invites and how we become of it. A life that is life-making. (Vintimilla, 2019, p. 5)

 

Quote of the Day – Int’l Women’s Day

“Feminism isn’t about making women strong. Women are already strong. It’s about changing the way the world perceives that strength.” –G.D. Anderson

I’m sharing this quote because it feels connected to what’s happening in the field of early childhood education in this country. That is, the way so many strong, determined women within the field (like you) are making a difference in terms of changing the way society perceives the value and importance of ECE. Happy International Women’s Day!!!
