The Child's World
By: Robertson, Margaret (ed.); Gerber, Rod (ed.)
Published by: Australian Council for Educational Research
Young people who live most of their lives in the 21st century
face dilemmas hardly experienced in the 20th century world:
the rapid compression of space and time; an unprecedented rate
of cultural and technological change; the dissolution of many
traditional boundaries. Already, children live in a world unknown
to us in our childhood they surf the net, play virtual games
and interact with cyberspace.
What skills are required to help children navigate these very
different spaces? How do they construct their identity and sense
of place? How can educators bring order to their experiences and
promote learning for the future?
The Childs World strives to answer these questions and more.
Drawing on contributions from educators worldwide, it incorporates
recent research and case studies to provide insight into how
children interact with the world around them, and how this
understanding can be used to improve learning.

Child-Centred Education
By: Doddington, Christine; Hilton, Mary
Published by: Sage Publications, Ltd (UK)
'The book is brief, accessible, and inspiring. The authors' vision for educating children fully takes into consideration the experiences that children have with contemporary technology and media while also maintaining basic principles of children's development' - Choice Magazine. Against an increasingly authoritarian background of testing and instruction, concern is growing about disengagement and loss of depth and quality in education at all levels. Child Centred Education seeks to explore the role of Primary education within this debate. The book will inspire teachers and head teachers seeking to make their practice more genuinely educational. The authors capture the current opinion that primary schools can begin to reclaim some of their autonomy, be innovative and become more creative. Based on wide ranging research, the book sets out to revive the creative alternative to. the rigid and impoverished learning experienced by too many primary school children. The authors: -Trace the origins and history of the child-centred tradition -Set out its fundamental beliefs and values -Explore its place in education today. This book is for teachers, school governors, local authority officers, undergraduate and postgraduate teacher training, and professional development courses.

`This collection..is outstanding. It has an excellent grasp of the field and students in fields of both social studies of childhood and children's rights and citizenship will gain a lot from reading and studying the book' - Jens Qvortrup, Professor of Sociology, University of Trondheim. `Anyone who is concerned with citizenship should grapple with the thesis in this collection. This stimulating book will provoke discussion of what is involved in recognising that children are as much part of our society as adults' - Professor Michael Freeman, Editor of International Journal of Children's Rights.
