Edited by Jennifer (School of Human Services and Social Work, Griffith University) Cartmel, Rick (Bowling Green State University) Worch
Part of the Advances in Playwork Research series
Paperback / softback
Description
Playwork Practice at the Margins explores the circumstances where playwork practice intersects with practice from diverse contexts and settings, encompassing disciplines such as health, education, early intervention and community development.
Each chapter focuses on a research project situated in a unique setting or space such as zoos, hospitals, refuges and rainforests.
In these settings, the authors reflect on Playwork Principles and consider these in relation to the theory, research, design and findings of their project.
By presenting research from settings at the margins of traditional playwork, the authors use shared values and principles to consider the significance of playwork when embedded in transdisciplinary work.
The book is underpinned by a model of reflective thinking that is used to examine how playwork practice is intertwined with knowledge from other disciplines. With a range of international contributions from both researchers and practitioners, this is the ideal text for academics and researchers in the fields of early childhood education, allied health, community development and social work disciplines as well as human geographers and practitioners in children’s services worldwide.
