We are happy to announce that two articles reporting research related to PROSUS have now been published by International Journal of Early Childhood Environmental Education (IJECEE) in the Spring 2021 Issue. You can find both articles here.
One article is written by Ann-Christin Furu and Cecilia Heilala and focuses on the sustainability work conducted by ECEC teacher education teaching practice settings in Finland as depicted in a collaborative process by staff. It problematizes the fact that sustainability is addressed with considerable variability and emphasizes the need for professional development in the field.
Another article is written by Ann-Christin Furu and Satu Valkonen and reports on the piloting of PROSUS and resluts from the teams in ECEC settings that took part in the development of the tool. It focuses on how PROSUS can contribute to processes of collegial reflection and discussion and thereby promote sustainability practices and pedagogies in the teams.
