Studying early years

"Studying early years in the work place in order to gain further qualifications and awards provides many exciting yet challenging opportunities for practitioners. In order to become a reflective student and practitioner researcher it is imperative to think critically, analyse, explore and evaluate ideas or concepts in more depth. This book provides a framework for developing these important skills as well as providing support for the challenges and changes that early years practitioners face on a day-to-day basis. It provides ideas and strategies for identifying a personal learning style in order to use work experiences effectively for a variety of work-based assignments."--Back cover.
