Heralded by Harvard University's Project Zero, the Reggio Emilia Approach is blend of theory and practice that is based upon decades of research in early childhood development. Founder Loris Malaguzzi designed a teaching approach which is alive, creative and emergent.

Central to this progressive approach is the image of the child as a strong and powerful player in their own education. The teacher is seen as a researcher and protagonist, creating a learning environment that is engaging and highly social. Children learn through play and are assessed through documentation. The documentation makes the learning visible and informs the practice – ultimately leading to innovations in curriculum.

Designed as an introduction to this approach, this first course will introduce two key principals: The strong image of the child as a collaborator in their own education; the environment as the third teacher – designing classrooms that support investigations and creativity and social-emotional development.


Mary Ann Biermeier M.Ed. is Managing Director of Riverbend Studios, llc.  She is a master degree educator with over 20 years in the early childhood field, an Arizona certified instructor inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach.

All learning starts with joy – we hope you will enjoy this class!

REVIEWS:

Priyanka – “This course is to remind me of children's potential to learn through play.”

Emily – “I love learning about all the different Reggio ideas to implement into my classroom. I can't wait to test out these ideas!”

Alefiyah – “The course is totally about what I believe and strongly feel for about the learning system. It's helping me understand myself better. Thank you.”

Victoria – “Very user friendly. Instructor is clear and easy to understand.”

Zeenat – “I really enjoyed this course!”

Tara – “This is exactly what I was looking for to start my own learning of the Reggio Emilia approach. I love the resources that are provided.”

Renee – “I appreciate the passion of the instructor. I was more involved as it wasn't a dry lecture, but a passionate one. It was helpful to have the "wrap up" at the end to bring home the points of the videos. Thank you. I gained more knowledge from this course. I would like to learn more. I do own a digital copy of the 100 Languages of Children, older edition, but it is pretty dry and I am not a textbook learner. I am a visual/doer learner. Reggio learner one might say. :)”

Christelle – “It is so interesting how we can develop children through different methods of play.”

Maria – “I am amazed by this course as of right now. I am feeling emotional and looking to learn all about Reggio Emilia. I am beyond happy to have found this approach. I am getting this course to work as a teacher in a Reggio Inspired school and I can not be more excited!! Thank you! Mary Ann Biermeier, your course has been an eye opening to me.”

Liz – “Its so rich. Concise yet powerful. Passionately presented.”

Julia – “This course was very interesting and well-done. I was engaged throughout and I feel I really learned a lot about the Reggio Emilia approach to education.”

Joanmarie – “Yes, I love it !”

Helene – “The explanation is clear and easy to follow. The flow of the presentations is organized. The examples that are given and the repetition that sometimes takes place, ensures that we focus on the main objectives behind this approach.”

Martha – “ I love this training its informative, clear and very simple to learn and adapt.”

Kartina – “It is wonderful to learn about the Reggio Emilia approach. It is my first course on Reggio education. They have been very educational, informative, practical. Good presentation, English is my second language and I was able to understand everything perfectly since the way they speak is very slow and clear. I was not mistaken in choosing you and I am sure that I will be taking more courses with Udemy!”

Dakota – “It was informative and I learned a lot. Not only how to interact with the children, but it also gave a newer perspective on how to encourage them and help them develop at their own pace.”

The information was good and the presenter was organized and easy to follow. Video clips were a little difficult to watch as the camera moved around so much. Our Infant/Toddler teachers are desperate for content on the Reggio Approach in their age groups, so adding a variety of ages would be wonderful.

Excellent information provided as far as concepts and then how to apply them. Video examples were super helpful in connecting abstract theory into hands on practice. Very inspiring.

Great match for me! I loved all the visuals for loose parts! Book suggestions were great as well. Always looking to expand my library. I appreciated seeing the set up of rooms too. It helps me visualize the best way to utilize the space I'm in.

The visual examples brings to life the details discussed in the audio and written material. It stirs my imagination to the many tangible ways I can implement the provocations in my classroom.

It is helping to understand more about Reggio Emilia Philosophy. I loved the reflexions about the Image of the Children and the relationship examples. I am enjoying about the environment from the RE perspective. Ohh and I do not want to forget about the parents and how relevant they are on the creativity and learning process we are participating too.

Very directed towards the American education system, not so groundbreaking for UK EYFS in my opinion as we hold a lot of these values already (from the settings I have been in). Interesting as a recap of what Reggio stands for but only really in reminding me of my current knowledge, quite basic information.

I teach nature at a Preschool-Nature Center and can see how this will fit into my program! Open ended materials is an easy concept when you are out in nature and provocations are abound. Great ideas for me. It is always good to step back and see the children create and explore new things.

I appreciate the extra resources as well as the obvious passion for the subject matter that the presenter shares with us learners! I am more excited to delve more deeply into the how and why of play-based learning as the course continues!

An inspiring course that will have a direct impact on my practice as I develop play within my setting.

Because the information the course provides is clear and very productive and also gives me many ideas as teachers to implement in our classroom, the importance of the connection with children and their families.
