| Abstract [eng] |
The article interprets qualitative research data disclosing what meanings children give to informal (as different) teaching and learning in everyday life situations and in what ways this difference is given a sense. It is disclosed that children conceptualise informal teaching and learning as different (in social–cultural meanings), which are given a sense in various ways: being assisted by parents and involving themselves into understanding of meanings of informal teaching and learning, comparing informal teaching and learning with formal, and reflecting on new meanings discovered through the processes of informal as different teaching and learning and their experience. Different/informal teaching and learning mean new knowing for children, which shock by their newness and emotional–cognitive experience. At the same time informal teaching and learning express a challenge, which enables children to generalize existing teaching and learning experiences (encompassing the content, forms, ways, etc. of formal teaching and learning). All of it inspires value transformation, manifesting itself through transference of values from teaching and learning results to the process. Research data enable to expand modern teaching and learning paradigm by narratives on children’s different/informal teaching and learning culture. |
