Abstract | This study investigated the concept, role and potential of intergenerational learning (IGL) as a pedagogical strategy in five Irish early childhood education (ECE) services, through exploring the perspectives on IGL of educators (5), children (70) and their parents (43). Informed by socio-cultural theories of learning and aligned to key principles of IGL, a qualitative methodological approach was adopted. Data was gathered using semi-structured interviews with educators, 'draw and talk' strategies with children and informal written feedback with parents. Key findings demonstrated that children's happiness, socio-emotional competences and executive functions, all key elements of successful learning and living, were strongly supported through IGL, reinforcing its potential as a relational pedagogy (Papatheodorou, T., and J. Moyles. 2009. "Learning Together in the Early Years: Exploring Relational Pedagogy." London: Routledge.). Additionally, IGL created rich opportunities for children's participation and contribution as citizens in communities, underscoring the potential of IGL as a strong and transformative pedagogical strategy (Sánchez, M., J. Sáez, P. Díaz, and M. Campillo. 2018. "Intergenerational Education in Spanish Primary Schools: Making the Policy Case." "Journal of Intergenerational Relationships" 16 (1-2): 166-183.) for Irish ECE services. (As Provided). |
