The focus is Australia and China with three research projects explored to provide insights into the history and development of early childhood education in each country. The work offers a consideration of the complexity of early childhood education in local and global contexts, at a time when global relationships can benefit from moving beyond better cultural understandings to greater connections and reciprocity. Each study has accompanying empirical data to support the interpretations offered. The first part of the book presents historical context and examines policy issues, the growth of the early childhood education workforce and the development of curriculum approaches in each country. The two projects that follow describe teachers? perspectives of children?s learning and an in-depth study of a collaborative higher education program that details stakeholder experiences. By studying participant attitudes and ideas in each country we have been able to share early childhood knowledge and discuss perspectives through early childhood languages, like perspectives on the role, importance and nature of play and learning. 410 0$aInternational Perspectives on Early Childhood Education and Development,$x2468-8754 ;$v32 606 $aEarly childhood education 606 $aInternational education 606 $aComparative education 606 $aEducation$xCurricula 606 $aEducation and state 606 $aEarly Childhood Education 606 $aInternational and Comparative Education 606 $aCurriculum Studies 606 $aEducational Policy and Politics 615 0$aEarly childhood education. 615 0$aInternational education. 615 0$aComparative education. 615 0$aEducation$xCurricula. 615 0$aEducation and state. 615 14$aEarly Childhood Education. 615 24$aInternational and Comparative Education. 615 24$aCurriculum Studies. 615 24$aEducational Policy and Politics. 676 $a089.951 676 $a372.210951 702 $aNyland$b Berenice 702 $aNg$b Josephine 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910468248003321 996 $aComparative perspectives on early childhood education reforms in Australia and China$91912494 997 $aUNINA
