Nomadic writing1 in early childhood education
2017
This article explores how the processes of writing and writers emerge and transform in two examples of Swedish early childhood educational writing practices. Students’ writing is a multifaceted activity involving a myriad of interconnected elements; however, to make sense of what is going on, more knowledge is needed about the connectivity, the movement and the unpredictability inherent in these activities. Taking a posthuman and nomadic perspective, the article studies how text and writer are co-constituted through the interrelations between human elements and non-human elements. The article concludes that conceptualizing writing as nomadic provides a way to view young children's educational writing as sites of experimentation, thus guiding the pedagogical attention to the productive potential of the writing situation.
