Documentation is about meaning as a give-and-take process, creating meanings using documentation of children’s and teachers’ actions, interactions and/or activities, environments, and materials. Work with documentation is always normative, since the aim is to use it as a form of assessment.

Dr. Karin Alnervik and Per Alnervik, are pedagogistas and directors of Hallonett consortium of preschools in Jonskopping, Sweden, and are leaders with the Stockholm Reggio Institute. They have particular interest in pedagogical documentation as a tool for professional development, and will bring projects and documentation to share.
