  1. Critical Friend Reflections Janette PelletierDr. Eric Jackman Institute of Child StudyOISE, University of Toronto

  2. Themes that cut across today’s presentations • Brain development & critical role of environment in early development and education • Definitions: what are we asking about in early years research and program evaluation? • Measurement, research evidence, data • Challenges with current approaches to research evidence and program/intervention evaluations

  3. Looking sideways: What else is currently underway in Ontario early years research and evaluation? • Seamless day • FDK in French Immersion • Direct child outcomes (many outcomes) • Nested data (quantitative, complex statistics) • Mixed methods • “Evidence-based storytelling” (Pascal) • Design research “I like playing guitar for my teacher”

  4. Looking forward: Lessons from today and thoughts for tomorrow • Families (& Bronfenbrenner’s spheres of influence) • Schools as hubs (0-12) • Mental wellness • Longer-term effects (collaborative research) • Randomized control studies • Looking inside the black box: Example - how do inquiry & play really work? (lesson study, design research in classrooms) END
