“I’ve ceased defending that which has already been proven. Instead of spending energy on feeble efforts to prove, I put this same energy into connecting people with the evidence” (Lisa Murphy). The Binder Challenge (in the textbook’s Introduction) is your chance to gather evidence that supports play, or as the author states “from this point forward every time you find something that supports a hands-on, play based, relationship-based, child-centered, developmentally appropriate, early childhood environment, copy it and put it in your binder.”
As you complete this course with us, create your binder. To meet this requirement, follow the author’s directions on page two of the course text, and start collecting evidence, such as:
• Articles
• Letters to the editor
• Photographs of playful signs at parks
• Book titles
• Workshop notes/handouts
• Play activities
• Play recipes
• Blog posts
• Links to play websites
• Research studies
• Scholarly papers that you/others wrote
• Include in your binder anything that (from the text) reinforces and supports the fact that this [play] mindset and approach is not new, reminds naysayers that this is not simply our personal preference, and supports the fact that this is not what we “like” or what we “want” but is actuality supported by the literature, data, science, and experience
Your binder can be electronic, paper, or a combination. In Module 2, you will be asked to provide pictures/screenshots or a link to your binder.
