Autoren-Porträt von Isauro M. Escamilla, Linda Kroll, Daniel R. Meier, Annie White
The authors of this book bring a long history of work with Learning Stories and collaborative inquiry, documentation, and reflection. We have worked for many years with young children, their families, and early childhood educators working with young children on authentic assessment and critical pedagogy. We have also collaborated for the last three years in an online group of early childhood educators working with educators on integrating Learning Stories in inquiry groups. This group, whose members work in varied early childhood settings in California, has met monthly to present Learning Stories and to provide feedback for group members to expand the use of Learning Stories as integrated with ongoing face-to-face and online inquiry groups. Two of our coauthors, Isauro M. Escamilla and Annie White, are founding members of Supporting the Advancement of Learning Stories in America (SALSA) www.salsa-global.org, a nonprofit professional organization dedicated to the advancement of Learning Stories in early childhood education.
