Interview With Mariane Hedegaard: Child Development and the Double Move Methodology in Teaching

Year: 2025

Type: editorial

Abstract: ABSTRACT The interview with Professor Emerita Mariane Hedegaard focuses on her contributions to the scientific study of child development in relation to teaching and learning processes, with particular attention to the Double Move methodology in teaching. Her propositions emerge from a body of research within the cultural-historical tradition that examines the relationship between the teaching of scientific knowledge and processes of children’s learning and development. Drawing on the work of Vygotsky and Davydov, Hedegaard explores how school subject matter can be made meaningful for both preschool and school-age children. The interview addresses the development of her research programme, the theoretical and conceptual foundations of the Double Move methodology, and the challenges involved in organising teaching practices grounded in this approach.
