Hong, Seong Bock; McNair, Shannon
Journal of Early Education and Family Review, v11 n1 p35-42 Sep 2003
Describes how engaging preservice and inservice teachers in the process of documenting children's learning in preschool and primary classrooms enhances learning, promotes reflective thinking, and encourages professional growth. Explains that documentation provides teachers opportunities to observe children more closely; focus on children's meaning-making process; listen and take children's ideas seriously; engage children more fully; inform their own teaching; and reconstruct their own educational beliefs and practices.
