This document discusses early childhood education in the Netherlands from the perspective of parents. It outlines the Dutch school system and reasons for early education, including learning being a lifelong duty and preparing children for society. While early education has positive effects like increased labor participation, its educational effects are disappointing. The document recommends improving parental participation through developing a shared vision between parents and teachers, establishing core values, and strengthening the relationship between institutions and parents as the most important factor for success.

Brain based-learning-early years

Farheen Maqsood

The document discusses implementing brain-based learning strategies in early years classrooms to improve students' learning experiences. It outlines objectives to meet diverse learners' needs and help all students reach their potential. Challenges included training teachers on brain-based strategies and embedding these strategies into daily routines.

This document summarizes a study examining patterns of communication between families and staff at Ashley Elementary School. Surveys were distributed to families and staff to understand preferred communication methods and their effectiveness. Key findings included that phone calls and notes were most common from both families and staff. Suggestions to improve communication included providing more regular academic updates, explaining directions clearly, and emphasizing student strengths in addition to weaknesses. Staff requested that families initiate contact more and prioritize their child's education. Overall the study aimed to discover current practices and ways to enhance home-school connections.

Video Interaction Guidance

BASPCAN

Video Interaction Guidance (VIG) is a strengths-based intervention that uses video recordings of parent-child interactions to promote attunement and attachment. Through cycles of filming, shared review, and action planning, VIG supports parents to better understand their child and improve communication. Evaluation of VIG shows improvements in parenting strategies and children's behaviors based on standardized questionnaires and parent interviews. Parents report more positive family communication and the ability to better understand and cope with their children. VIG aims to improve family outcomes by enhancing the parent-child relationship.

The document discusses the benefits of recess in elementary schools. It notes that while 79% of schools provide daily recess, only 11% require it. Research shows recess improves focus, attention, memory, and problem-solving skills. However, some schools have reduced or eliminated recess to increase instruction time due to standardized testing pressures. Overall, the document argues that recess is important for students' cognitive, social, and physical development.

Is Recess THAT important?

djoinershsu

The document discusses the debate around whether recess is relevant or ridiculous for elementary school children. It presents arguments that recess has positive impacts on academic achievement, focus, social development, and health. Principals report that students listen better and are more focused in class after recess. However, some schools are canceling recess to add more classroom time for struggling students and test preparation, but the effects of no-recess policies require more research.

bradandemilyrobb

This document discusses strategies for sustaining Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) programs. The top reasons PBIS implementations get bogged down include lack of administrative support, understanding and buy-in from staff, and not consistently using data to monitor student behavior. The most important factors for sustainability are administrative and staff buy-in, systematic data collection and use, and strong leadership. The document provides principles and recommendations for promoting PBIS as a priority, ensuring effectiveness, increasing efficiency, and using continuous data regeneration to sustain programs over time.

Topic research3

Ryan Eustace

Middle school students often feel they have too much homework, which can negatively impact their grades and other areas of life. These students are becoming more involved in extracurricular activities and have more responsibilities, making it difficult to keep up if they fall behind on their work. For some families, it is also a challenge to find time for children to complete homework, especially on weekends. Research shows that middle schoolers who do 60-90 minutes of homework per night see benefits, but doing more than 90 minutes yields no improvement. While homework can enhance learning if assigned appropriately, too much can over-involve parents and prevent students from learning in the way they are being taught at school.

Brazendale 2014 - Wasting Our Time_Allocated versus accumulated PA in ASPs

Keith Brazendale

This study examined the relationship between the amount of time allocated for physical activity in afterschool programs and the amount of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) accumulated by children. The researchers analyzed data from 20 afterschool programs that allocated between 15-150 minutes per day for physical activity opportunities. They found that children accumulated the most MVPA (around 25 minutes for boys and 17-19 minutes for girls) in programs that allocated 60 minutes or more per day for physical activity. There were no further increases in MVPA for programs allocating 75 minutes or more. Across all programs, only 26% of children met the recommended 30 minutes of daily MVPA. The researchers concluded that allocating at least 60 minutes of physical activity opportunities daily

This study investigated whether a 4-week balance protocol could improve quality of life in cancer patients. Eight female cancer patients participated in the experimental balance program, while five female cancer patients were the control group. Measures of balance, fall risk, and quality of life were taken before and after for both groups. The results found no significant difference in quality of life or fall risk between the groups or from pre- to post-test. The study concluded that the lack of improvement in balance meant they could not examine if quality of life scores improved among cancer patients from the balance program. Further research with a longer intervention is needed.

BASPCAN

The document discusses research on the experiences of child protection social workers and asylum-seeking families in Ireland. Key findings included mutual mistrust between social workers and families due to the social workers' perceived role as representatives of the state and immigration officials. Families found it difficult to trust social workers and viewed them similarly to immigration officers due to fears over deportation. Social workers also struggled to work with unpredictable immigration processes that impacted family care plans. Both groups had challenges with cultural differences, language barriers, and the effects of Ireland's direct provision system for asylum seekers.

BASPCAN

This document summarizes a study on young people's experiences participating in their Child in Care Reviews. The study found that while most young people attended their reviews, the level of preparation and ability to provide meaningful input varied. Some felt decisions had already been made before the meeting. The format of reviews is often too formal and adult-oriented. The study recommends better preparing young people, involving them in planning meetings, and providing feedback to improve their participation and ensure their views can make a difference.

Keith Brazendale

This study aimed to develop a system to convert estimates of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) minutes per day between six different sets of published accelerometer cutpoints for children and adolescents. The study used data from 43,112 participants aged 3-18 years old across 21 studies worldwide contained in the International Children's Accelerometer Database. MVPA estimates ranged widely from 29.7 to 126.1 minutes per day depending on the cutpoints used. The study developed prediction equations to convert MVPA estimates between the six cutpoint sets, finding median absolute percent errors of 12.6% or less. This system allows MVPA estimates from different studies using various cutpoints to be standardized and compared.

Treating Explosive Kids - Part 1

Health Easy Peasy

The document summarizes the Collaborative Problem Solving (CPS) approach for treating children with explosive behaviors. It discusses limitations of traditional parent management training and introduces CPS as an alternative. CPS assumes explosive behaviors stem from lagging cognitive skills that impair flexibility, problem solving, and emotion regulation. It aims to identify specific cognitive deficits and situational triggers through clinical interviews and assessments, then address the underlying causes rather than just modifying behavior. The document outlines three approaches to handling problems - Plan A involves parental insistence, Plan C reduces expectations, while Plan B employs CPS's collaborative problem-solving to pursue expectations and teach missing skills, with the goal of reducing explosive episodes.

A perenting programme for parents with learning disabilities and/or difficulties

BASPCAN

This document summarizes the partnership between the NSPCC and two universities to develop and evaluate an intervention for child sexual abuse called Letting the Future In (LTFI). It describes how NSPCC studies found a gap between need for therapeutic services for child sexual abuse victims and what was available. Practitioners then created LTFI which was piloted and implemented. An independent evaluation was commissioned including a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to rigorously evaluate LTFI's effectiveness. Overcoming challenges, the RCT recruited 242 children and was the largest of its kind. It aimed to provide high-quality evidence on LTFI's impact to inform practice and policy.

BASPCAN

This document summarizes the findings of an evaluation of the FED UP program, which provides services to families where parents misuse drugs/alcohol. The evaluation found that the program was effective in reducing children's emotional and behavioral problems, improving their self-esteem, helping them process thoughts/feelings, and enhancing protective parenting. Key mechanisms of change included children feeling less alone and parents gaining insight into how their behavior impacts children. Barriers to the program included issues with group composition and family instability. The implications discussed expanding the program's reach and using data to improve outcomes for children.

Young People's Perspectives on Recognising and Telling about Abuse and Neglect

BASPCAN

This document summarizes a study on young people's perspectives on recognizing and disclosing abuse and neglect. The study included a literature review, analysis of an online peer support site, and interviews with 30 vulnerable young people aged 11-20. It developed a framework for understanding how young people recognize, tell about, and get help for abuse, which influences practitioners. The framework shows recognition, telling, and help can be partial, hidden, signs-based, or purposeful. It also examines how related interventions can help symptoms or underlying causes, and influence trust, effectiveness, and duration of support over time. The implications are that practitioners should not rely on verbal disclosure, be sensitive to the challenges of telling, and see that recognition may come

WE MUST BE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT: CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE DISCLOSURE ACROSS THE DE...

BASPCAN

This document summarizes a study comparing narratives of child sexual abuse disclosure between young people and adults. It found that young people were more likely to disclose due to a "pressure cooker effect" of emotions building up over time or being directly asked about signs of distress. In contrast, adults were more likely to blame themselves for the abuse and believed telling would make the situation worse. The study highlights the importance of creating an environment where children feel believed and supported to disclose abuse.

No One Noticed, No One Heard

BASPCAN

The document summarizes a study that examined informal and formal support structures for young people who experienced child abuse. 53 young women and 7 young men between ages 18-24 who reported extensive victimization were interviewed. On average, it took 7.8 years to disclose experiences of child sexual abuse. Most initial disclosures were to informal sources like family and friends. Barriers to disclosure included lack of knowledge that the abuse was wrong and lack of trusted adults. Missed opportunities for intervention were identified at the individual, family, community, and system levels. Key recommendations included providing youth appropriate information about relationships early on, communicating with youth directly and sensitively, and ensuring professionals notice signs of struggle and ask youth directly about their experiences.

The Parents Under Pressure (PuP) Program

BASPCAN

The Parents Under Pressure (PuP) Program is a 12-module home-based parenting program that aims to reduce child abuse potential, parental stress, and child behavior problems. The modules can be addressed in any order based on family priorities and are supplemented by liaison with other social services. Studies have found the PuP program reduces child abuse potential, parental stress and improves child behavior, and for every 100 families treated there would be an estimated savings of AU$3.1 million.

Improving Decision-Making in Pre-birth Assessment: The OxPUP Project

BASPCAN

This document summarizes the OxPUP (Oxford Pre-birth Pathway) project, which aims to improve decision-making in pre-birth assessments. It describes the OxPUP pathway, which involves identifying high-risk families during pregnancy and providing intervention. It also discusses tools used in pre-birth and postnatal assessments. The document presents two case studies, one where the child remained with their parents and one where the child was removed at birth. It finds that OxPUP cases had lower foster care costs and shorter court times compared to non-OxPUP cases.

1) The document describes the introduction of the Parents Under Pressure (PuP) program at Coolmine Therapeutic Community in Dublin to address gaps in supporting the parent-child relationship for mothers in residential treatment. 2) Quantitative and qualitative data were collected pre, mid, and post intervention to evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of PuP. Results showed reductions in depression, anxiety and stress levels as well as improvements in parent-child functioning. 3) Qualitative interviews found that PuP helped participants better understand how their childhood trauma and addiction had negatively impacted parenting, but also increased hope by providing mindfulness techniques and a supportive group environment.

BASPCAN

Young advisors from over 100 teenagers aged 13-21 across several European countries were engaged to advise on a project about increasing safety regarding new technologies and intimate partner violence. The advisors provided input on developing the project website and materials. Challenges included low online discussion participation and high turnover of advisors. Strategies to address this included providing incentives, flexible timing of meetings, and discussing issues in new ways like drawing. Key issues were lack of advisor ownership of the online space and lack of direct cross-country discussions. Recommendations included giving advisors control of social media and enabling international meetings.

BASPCAN

This document summarizes key findings from a study on young people's experiences with interpersonal violence and abuse both online and offline. The study included 100 interviews with young people ages 15-18 in several European countries. Key findings included: 1. Experiences of controlling behavior and surveillance both online and offline were normalized by some youth. This included pressure to share passwords and social media accounts. 2. Sending and receiving unwanted sexual images online was also normalized in some areas, though it caused distress for others, especially in tight-knit communities. 3. Both sexual pressure and physical/emotional violence occurred offline as well, with young women disproportionately impacted. 4. New technologies played a role

This document summarizes a study exploring intimate partner violence among young people in five European countries. The study uses a mixed-methods approach, including expert workshops, a survey of 4,500 14-17 year olds, interviews with 100 young people, and development of an app. The survey finds high rates of online and offline emotional, physical, and sexual abuse. Girls report more negative impacts than boys. Factors like family violence, bullying, and gendered attitudes predict greater risk. The study also examines sending and sharing of sexual images, finding it associated with greater intimate partner violence risk, especially for girls.

Babies on Top of the World: Early Intervention in the Indian Himalayas Part 2

BASPCAN

In Dehradun district of Uttarakhand, India, with a population of 1.7 million people, only around 1800 have access to reliable quality professional services. Most pediatricians in the area have little awareness of the importance of early intervention for children. Developmental disabilities can be present from birth or acquired later in life due to factors like malnutrition, anemia, neglect, or lack of stimulation, and many acquired disabilities can be prevented by proper care and support during early childhood years.

Babies on Top of the World: Early Intervention in the Indian Himalayas

BASPCAN

Babies On Top of the World documents early intervention programs for children with disabilities in remote areas of the Indian Himalayas run by the Latika Roy Foundation. The foundation operates 8 centers that serve over 300 children daily and monitors 500 high-risk infants annually, providing developmental assessments, therapy, and training parents and community health workers, though this still only reaches a small fraction of the estimated 66 million developmentally disabled children in India.

An Inclusive and Families Strengths Based Approach in Child Protection

BASPCAN

This document discusses East Lothian Council's adoption of a strengths-based, inclusive approach to child protection called Signs of Safety. It notes key reports and legislation driving this change and outlines East Lothian's multi-year implementation process beginning in 2011 with workshops and establishing governance groups. This included introducing Signs of Safety for initial case conferences in 2013 and all conferences, supervision, and core groups by 2014. Feedback found professionals and families felt meetings were inclusive and addressed risks fully, though plans were sometimes incomplete. This led to a research project on making plans more specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and time-based.
