Pōwhiri
A primary task for refugee families and children who are resettling in a new country is to develop a sense of belonging in that place, time and context. This article theorises the pōwhiri, the traditional Māori ceremony of welcome or ritual of encounter, as a metaphor for refugee families and children coming to belong in Aotearoa New Zealand. The theory-building is derived from observation of pōwhiri at the Mangere Refugee Resettlement Centre, wh…
Lessons Learned—They’re Not Just for Academia, But for Life

Children’s working theories about Covid-19 in Aotearoa New Zealand
As the COVID-19 virus has spread worldwide, much attention has been paid to its impact on the health and wellbeing of adults, with less attention to how the virus has impacted on young children. This article draws on documentation and video data from a kindergarten in Aotearoa New Zealand. It discusses the working theories of 4 year-old children whose teachers encouraged them to draw, construct images, explain and tell stories about their experie…
Refugee children and families’ positioning within resettlement and early childhood education policies in Aotearoa New Zealand
This paper uses a framing derived from refugee and child rights conventions to analyse the positioning of young refugee children and their families in Aotearoa New Zealand’s resettlement policies, early childhood curriculum and early childhood education (ECE) funding policies. It also analyses data from interviews with participants from ECE settings who are working with refugee children and families, to discuss how policy is experienced in ECE pr…

Brokering to support participation of disadvantaged families in early childhood education
This paper discusses findings from an evaluation of the New Zealand Ministry of Education's Early Childhood Education ( ECE ) Participation Programme that targeted local areas where there are high numbers of children starting school who have not participated in ECE . The aim of the programme is to increase participation of these low‐income ‘priority’ children in ‘quality’ ECE . In this paper, two policy initiatives and features that supported par…

Using Mentoring to Develop Professional Teaching Knowledge for Problem-based Historical Inquiry
This case study examined how mentoring experiences might encourage teachers to consider and adopt a problem-based historical inquiry (PBHI) framework for teaching. We mentored six teachers over 15 months as they planned and implemented PBHI teaching, reflected on their experiences, and then engaged in peer mentoring of other teachers. Data included surveys, planning artifacts, interviews, and observations. Qualitative analyses of data found all t…
Using Technology in Reggio Emilia-Inspired Programs
All young children need to interact with their environments to achieve maximum development and learning. Technology has great potential for supporting the learning needs of all young children in early childhood programs supported by the Reggio Emilia philosophy. This article discusses possible uses of technologies that are appropriate for young children, including assistive technology devices (from low to high tech) for children with special need…

Abuse and Neglect of Individuals with Disabilities
Whether young or old, individuals with disabilities are at increased risk for abuse and neglect when compared to the rates for individuals without disabilities. Reducing that risk is the responsibility of us all: families, servicing agencies, forensic personnel, legislators, the individuals with disabilities themselves, and others. However, policymakers carry a larger part of the responsibility to protect people with disabilities from harm becaus…
Selecting an Agency Auspice for Family Preservation Services
Issues associated with providing intensive home-based family preservation services through public and private child welfare agency auspices are discussed. Program implementation, funding, service effectiveness, program efficiency, organizational politics, and other factors are examined to assess the strengths and limitations of each auspice
The Effect of Clear Evaluation Criteria on Sex Bias in Judgments of Performance
Previous research indicates that the work of women is often devalued relative to that of men. Two experiments tested the hypothesis that such sex bias appears when judges follow ambiguous guidelines or criteria in making evaluations, but not when they follow clear evaluation guidelines. In each experiment, male and female undergraduates evaluated a performance that was attributed to either a man or woman (an intellectual test performance in Exper…
What you don't know can hurt you
Previous investigators have suggested that women display lower self-confidence than men across almost all achievement situations. The empirical validity of this suggestion is assessed in an experiment testing the hypothesis that performance evaluation guidelines moderate sex difference in self-confidence. Undergraduates read the guidelines by which their performance on an impending test would be evaluated. Guidelines were: ambiguous (A); clear—sp…
