Children's Learning

<p>Practice of children’s learning/teaching is frequently based on tradicional attitude to a child as a person and a childhood as an immature period in terms of social and cultural meanings (Juodaitytė, 2003, Gulløv, 2005b; Hviid, 2005; Juodaitytė, 2007). Contemporary pedagogy supports a variety of approaches to childhood: <em>from general</em> definition of it as a period, grounding it on psychogenetic peculiarities of this period and ascribing “imperfection” to it as a necessary and self-explanatory characteristics, <em>to</em> its <em>mythologized</em>, strained explanation, employing its pseudo-scientific interpretation, based on theories of “wild thinking”, “primitive civilisations” or “natural selection”.</p><p>Next to such socio-cultural discourse, which prevails in the educational reality, another discourse, which represents the culture children’s informal learning, emerges that implies the culture of children’s self-learning. It is based on the roles, rules that are acceptable to children themselves in the process of learning and the practice of children’s learning (Jurašaitė, 1999; Dencik, 2005; Gulløv, 2005a, 2005b; Hviid, 2005; Jenks, 2005;Juul, 2005a, 2005b). According to such conception, a child is a creator of social order, who is responsible for own learning process and its outcomes.<strong></strong></p><p>One of the conditions for children’s independent learning is a free choice of means, environments, sources, techniques and others. Informal home setting during summer creates favourable conditions for children’s independent learning because children are provided with a choice: how to use various aids, what environments and resources to use for self-learning and what learning methods to apply taking into account own needs and abilities.</p><p><strong>The problem questions</strong><strong>of theresearch: </strong>How does child’s freedom manifest itself in processes of self-learning and how is the socio-cultural identity of an informally learning child conceptualised?</p><p><strong>Research aim – </strong>to reveal the expression of the freedom of children<em>’</em>s who learn informally in a free (unstructured) setting when analysing how children conceptualisethemselves in this process and create the identity of the one learning in the informal independent way.</p><p><strong>Research object </strong>– expression of socio-cultural identity of children, who learn informally in a free (unstructured) setting.<strong></strong></p>

By enabling students to make decisions, set their own goals, make a choice, plan and organize activities, the development of self-learning and student autonomy is being encouraged. If students are given the opportunity of independent activities, effect of self-control in the process of learning and self-regulation becomes more pronounced.
