The Theory of Practice Architectures in Early Childhood Education

Purpose

We aim to share knowledge and resources for the use of the Theory of Practice Architectures in research in early childhood education (ECE). The site is

“an invitation to authentically engage with a practice theory and provides insight into the positive transformation of educational practices for the benefit of individuals and society.” (Gibbs et al., 2020).

For source materials, videos and links to articles that help you in your work with the theory

This website is a culmination of work by
