Promoting Creativity: Key Aspects of Educational Trips in Reggio Emilia
Our educational trips to Reggio Emilia are designed to provide you with deep insights into the key elements of this innovative pedagogy. A particular focus is on atelier work and the promotion of creativity. The role of the Atelieristas, the art educators in the Reggio settings, is of central importance. They support the children in expressing their ideas and thoughts through a variety of materials and techniques. The ateliers themselves are places of inspiration and experimentation, where children can unfold their creative potential.
How is creativity fostered in Reggio Emilia? Through practical experiences in the ateliers, insights into the careful selection of materials, and creative processes, you will learn how to create a stimulating environment in your own setting. The Fröbel Group offers interesting insights into the role of Atelieristas and the importance of aesthetic education.
Another important focus of our educational trips is ReMida, the centre for the creative reuse of materials. ReMida is a central component of Reggio pedagogy, as it encourages children to rediscover everyday materials and use them for their creative projects. This not only enhances creativity but also awareness of sustainability and resource conservation. Learn more about the significance of ReMida in Reggio pedagogy and how you can implement these ideas in your own practice.

More than Pedagogy: Understanding the Historical Context of Reggio Pedagogy

To fully understand the principles and values of this educational approach, it is important to consider the historical context.

The akubiz offers information on educational journeys that focus on anti-fascist history.
Another important aspect is the role of women in the development of Reggio pedagogy. Women have played a crucial role in shaping the educational system in Reggio Emilia, significantly contributing to the development of Reggio pedagogy. Their commitment and sense of community have helped develop a pedagogy that centralises the needs and potentials of children.

Experience Reggio Pedagogy: This is what the practice looks like
The Reggio approach is characterised by a particular attitude and specific skills of the educational professionals. At its core is the appreciation of the child as a competent learner. Educators see themselves as companions and supporters of the children, giving them space to unfold their own interests and potential. The Fröbel Gruppe emphasises the importance of observing and documenting children's learning processes.
Another important element of the Reggio approach is the design of the environment. The spatial design and selection of materials play a crucial role in the development of children. The atelier serves as a place of creative engagement, where children can experiment with a variety of materials and implement their ideas. ReMida is a source of sustainable materials that open up new possibilities for children's creative development.
Collaboration with parents and the community is a central component of the Reggio approach. Parents are involved as partners in the educational process, with the opportunity to actively participate in shaping daily life at the kindergarten. Networking with local actors and institutions contributes to creating a vibrant and diverse learning environment. The GEW Thüringen provides insights into the importance of collaboration with parents and the community.
