The aim of the ILRF is to gather people
involved in early childhood leadership research, and to create an arena for
presenting leadership research. This is a request for abstract submission for
presenting leadership research papers at the meeting in Trondheim. Each speaker
will have 15 minutes to do the presentation, and 10 minutes to answer questions and respond to comments from the audience.
The abstract (approx. 200 words) should include
the title of the paper and 2–3 keywords. In addition name and contact
information, institution and affiliation. The deadline for submitting an
abstract is 1st April 2014. The
abstracts should be sent by email to per.t.granrusten@dmmh.no
In Sydney
we discussed the variety in the use of terms in the ECEC sector. One suggestion was that ILRF should try to contribute to develop a clearer internatsjonal conceptual framework for research and dissemination in the
field of leadership in ECEC. We would like to challenge the members to
contribute in this, and bring terms and consepts that are difficult give
meaningful translation into English, or from English to own language.
The program
is not completed, but it would mainly consist of three parts:
1) Visit to a small samle of Norwegian Early Childhood centres, one with
focus on outdoor play
2) Presentation of papers from ILRF members
3) A roundtable discussion and planning of future research activities
and collaboration among ILRF members.
Monday 9th June is a Holiday in Norway, and that has at
least two implications. The shops are closed, and the weekend is a long weekend
and there might be a high demand for hotel rooms. It may be necessary to book well in advance.
There
are many hotels in Trondheim, and we have som suggestions:
