Bridging Theory and Practice for Early Years Education, Prof. Dr. Abdülkadir Kabadayı, Editör, Livre de Lyon, Lyon, ss.179-189, 2021
The Reggio Emilia Approach takes its name from a town located in
Italy. This approach originated in Reggio Emilia town with the efforts
of an educator whose name was Loris Malaguzzi and the townspeople
(Malaguzzi, 1998). Reggio Emilia includes 33 schools accepting different
age groups, from infants a few months old to children aged 6 years (Dalhberg
and Moss, 2010). The Reggio Emilia Approach that leaves its mark on early
childhood education and sets an example for community-based education
models, regenerates in many countries of the world. As researchers, educators,
and those working in preschool education institutions witness the activities
and achievements of children in Reggio Emilia schools, they endeavor to
comprehend the principles of this approach and its implications in practice and
to ensure that it regenerates in their schools
