Abstract
A review of research
Much of the research used to develop Aistear is summarised in four papers:
1. Perspectives on the relationship between education and care in early childhood (Hayes, 2007)
2. Children’s early learning and development (French, 2007)
3. Play as a context for early learning and development (Kernan, 2007)
4. Supporting children’s early learning and development through formative assessment (Dunphy, 2008).
These papers are on the NCCA website at www.ncca.ie/earlylearning.
This booklet summarises each paper
and concludes with an overview of the key messages.
