Abstract

ABSTRACT This study aims at capturing the actual status of policy implementation of ECEC policy in Romania, which entangles not only policy-makers, experts and social actors per se but also a complicated history of crèche as an institution and parenting traditions. Based on both quantitative and qualitative data the study analyses the international, national and local levels of implementation of new ECEC quality goals raising two questions: how do stakeholders (experts, practitioners and parents) define quality in ECEC institutions for children from one to three years, and how do the stakeholders interplay with international quality goals? Using a comparative case study approach (Bartlett, Lesley Erin, and Frances K. Vavrus. 2014. “Transversing the Vertical Case Study: A Methodological Approach to Studies of Educational Policy as Practice.” Anthropology and Education Quarterly 45: 131–147; Bartlett, Lesley, and Frances Vavrus. 2017. “Comparative Case Studies: An Innovative Approach.” Nordic Journal of Comparative and International Education (NJCIE) 1 (1)) the study reflects on the perceptions, expectations and negotiations of quality from the stakeholder’s point of view. The study shows, how experts orient towards international criteria, whereas practitioners orient themselves towards the parent. The study also shows that children’s perspective is absent for all stakeholders.

小心奶油蛋糕！关于罗马尼亚幼儿园教育质量的争议观点

本研究旨在捕捉罗马尼亚ECEC政策实施的实际状况，这不仅涉及政策制定者、专家和社会行为者本身，还涉及cr作为一种制度和养育传统的复杂历史。基于定量和定性数据，本研究分析了国际、国家和地方各级实施新的ECEC质量目标的情况，提出了两个问题:利益相关者(专家、从业者和家长)如何定义1至3岁儿童ECEC机构的质量，以及利益相关者如何与国际质量目标相互作用?采用比较案例研究方法(Bartlett, Lesley Erin和Frances K. Vavrus, 2014)。“横向纵向个案研究:教育政策作为实践研究的方法论方法”人类学与教育季刊45:131-147;Bartlett, Lesley和Frances Vavrus, 2017。比较案例研究:一种创新方法。北欧比较与国际教育杂志(NJCIE) 1(1))的研究反映了从利益相关者的角度对质量的看法、期望和谈判。该研究显示，专家如何以国际标准为导向，而从业者如何以父母为导向。该研究还表明，所有利益相关者都没有考虑到儿童的观点。
