This article simple cuts large sections of text from the page " About the Reggio Emilia Approach". For example, the sections titled "Community support and parental involvement" and "Teachers as learners" are lifted verbatim. Mrtweedles ( talk) 02:47, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
hi, i am currently doing an individual research proposal on the Reggio approach, on how effective their methods are in meeting the needs of the children. i have been searching the net for weeks looking for articles. do you know of any sites that may contain them or any other way of getting some? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.34.9.250 ( talk) 19 February 2005
-the difficulty is that you cannot "do Reggio". it is a town in Italy :). Though many of the ideas and concepts used in Reggio Emilia can be adapted for use outside of Italy, it exists as it does due to the very nature of the culture it is embedded in...we can't copy the culture without changing our towns, neighborhoods, politics, parents, way of life...we can (and do, internationally) take what we see as the best parts that can be adapted and explore ways to introduce them in our own classrooms.... -- 71.104.42.35 05:18, 24 January 2006 (UTC) (-written by a public kindergarten teacher who no longer has any power to teach this way due to the political landscape associated with education)
It would be nice if this article actually DESCRIBED the "R-E approach" in the top section, as is, well, sort of the NORM for Wikipedia entries. (Yes, I'm being snide - sorry - this article is insufferably pedantic and obtuse.)—Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.188.151.190 ( talk) 16 July 2006
I found this article very tedious and vague, as well as obsessed with the contrast between American pedagogy and Reggio Emilia, as though the author had an axe to grind. It should be drastically improved and flagged as such, I think.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.7.60.204 ( talk) 18 October 2006
I appreciate this article very much, but I'm not sure that it has an neutral point of view (NPOV). Also, I'm not sure that the statements are refer to original sources. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Peterham ( talk • contribs) 9 January 2007
This approach is used successfully at our local kindergarten,
wellington,
New Zealand. I have found this article, although incomplete, an informative start to the approach. I encourage others to stop critizing the material, but jump in and start editing. —

Just a reminder that Wikipedia is NOT an advertising opportunity or a comprehensive web directory, and that every link under ==External links== must comply with the guideline. WhatamIdoing ( talk) 18:09, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
I would really appreciate a succinct summary of what the Reggio Emilia approach actually is. The approach was recommended to me by a prominent lecturer in education, but I am having difficulties finding clear information about this. Totorotroll ( talk) 12:03, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
I want to correct this: "Educators have to make children aware that respect for their similar is important because everyone is a “legal subject” and part of a group."
but don't know what it means or is meant to mean. Could someone who does know please help. Totorotroll ( talk) 17:03, 20 December 2013 (UTC)
It's a nearly word-by-word translation from Italian and does sound odd in English. It means "Educators must make children aware of the importance of respecting the other children ("their similar") because every person holds rights ("legal subject") and is member of a group (implying you must respect fellow group members).

There were several sections that are identical to the article "Reggio Emilia: Some Lessons for U.S. Educators" by Rebecca New. It is from an Early Childhood Education website and looks like it predates this article. Here is the link to the Rebbecca New article: http://ecap.crc.illinois.edu/eecearchive/digests/1993/new93.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by Redraven87 ( talk • contribs) 18:18, 13 February 2014 (UTC)
This article is so fundamentally biased and contrary to the spirit and mission of Wikipedia that I think it should be deleted, until someone informed and willing to present a balanced view steps up. I really find it offensive. Alanrobts ( talk) 02:41, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
As others have pointed out, much of the text here is taken from what are effectively marketing materials for the Reggio Emilia approach. As such, I'm adding the POV tag to call attention to the bias at the top of the page. Carleas ( talk) 03:29, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
marketing materials? Maybe we can try to fix up this page together. I'm willing to search for good sources and possibly make edits on the article. Left guide ( talk) 11:07, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
