The Sage Handbook of Early Childhood Research

How does homework ‘work’ for young children? Children’s accounts of homework in their everyday lives
Homework is an increasing yet under-researched part of young children’s everyday lives. Framed by the international agendas of starting strong and school accountability, homework in the lives of young children has been either overlooked or considered from the perspective of adults rather than from the perspective of children themselves. This paper redresses this situation by reporting on an Australian study of 120 young children, aged four to eig…
Understanding teachers' reporting of child sexual abuse: Measurement methods matter
Locking the unlockable: Children's invocation of pretence to define and manage place
Young children use pretence in their interactions with their peers. This article focuses on their use of pretence to establish, define and formulate places within their peer interaction. A talk-in-interaction approach is used to analyse video-recorded and transcribed interactions of children aged 4-6 years in the block area of an early childhood classroom in Australia. The complex and collaborative interactive work of the children produced shared…

Young children as rule makers
I told you so: Justification Used in Disputes in Young Children's Interactions in an Early Childhood Classroom
While justifications are used frequently by young children in their everyday interactions, their use has not been examined to any great extent. This article examines the interactional phenomenon of justification used by young children as they manage social organization of their peer group in an early childhood classroom. The methodological approaches of conversation analysis and membership categorization analysis were used to analyse video-record…
Identifying and evaluating teachers’ knowledge in relation to child abuse and neglect: A qualitative study with Australian early childhood teachers
Everyday Experiences of Homeless Young People in Supported Accommodation Programmes in Australia

The SAAP is a joint Commonwealth and State/Territory programme for assisting people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness by providing transitional supported accommodation and support services. The paper provides accounts of how two young people, Monica and Brendan, make sens…
The Contested Terrain of Teachers Detecting and Reporting Child Abuse and Neglect
This article establishes the important role of early childhood teachers in child abuse and neglect and argues for empirical research into their practice of detecting, and reporting, known or suspected child abuse and neglect in a State with new and unique reporting obligations for teachers. It emphasizes the practical value of such research for the early childhood profession and ultimately for the children in their care
Investigating an Account of Children ‘Passing Notes’ in the Classroom: How Boys and Girls Operate Differently in Relation to an Everyday, Classroom Regulatory Practice
This article draws on the sociology of childhood framework in order to examine one primary school girl’s account of how the children in her classroom pass notes to each other when they are ‘not allowed to talk at all’. Close examination of the account shows how the girls and boys in this particular classroom co-construct gendered membership activities in order to negotiate the teacher’s regulation of their classroom interactions. The girls compet…

Educational Review This book focuses on doing ethical research with children in today's climate of increased globalization, surveillance and awareness of children as competent research participants. It covers a range of conceptual, methodological and procedural issue…
Building social capital in early childhood education and care: An Australian study
Mounting research evidence demonstrates that effective ‘early childhood education and care’ (ECEC) has short‐term and longer‐term social and educational benefits for children and families. An allied body of evidence attests to the contribution of social capital (i.e. social networks and relationships based on trust) to such benefits. The research reported in this article bridges these two bodies of evidence by researching the social capital of ch…
Mothers Offending Against Their Role: An Australian Experience
Inmate mothers are not only seen to offend against society, but also against their role as mothers. They bear often public and private scorn for the dislocation their incarceration brings to their children and families. This paper reports on the Australian component of an international comparative policy study, Incarcerated mothers and children: Impact of prison environments(IM-CIPE). This study investigated the impact of the prison environment o…
