    Coloring Pages and Creativity, with Tiffany Pearsall

    While there isn't often a hard and fast rule, coloring pages are often looked at as "busy work" or as having no place in a child led classroom, with beliefs about the potential for negative impact on children's creativity and discovery. Why would a child want to learn to draw independently if we have pages already made with all of the pictures they could want to draw! Surprisingly, there's very limited research on coloring pages and their impact on creativity... or anything else for young children.    References: Creative and Mental Growth (Third Edition) Viktor Lowenfeld Nurturing Creativity: An Essential Mindset for Young Children’s Learning by Rebecca Isbell and Sonia Akiko Yoshizawa Coloring-Book-Type Experiences and Children's Divergent Pictorial Production* N.

    Critical vs. Radical Scholarship

    Before we talk about specific research in early childhood, I wanted to talk about the history of the institution of science-- how it has served to both expand human knowledge and block out those it has deemed "unfit" to be in its halls, how unintentional bias and purposeful bigotry have made and maintained their way in, and how modern scholars can work to expand the canon of what we know and how we know it. Lizz talks with Dr. Bee, a professor of sociology, about bias, science, and what it means to be a radical scholar.
