N. (2018). The role of early years care providers in supporting continued breastfeeding and breast milk feeding. Early Years, [1430123]. The role of early years care providers in supporting continued breastfeeding and breast milk feedingThis paper discusses challenges faced by mothers who seek to continue breastfeeding and/or breast milk feeding (B/BMF) whilst using daytime childcare, and early years practitioners' attitudes toward their role in the support of these feeding practices. The dataset being reported comes from a small-scale feasibility study that was conducted in the summer of 2015 at a childcare provider site in a highly deprived urban area of Scotland. Focus groups with B/BMF mothers, as well as with early years practitioners were conducted. We report data pertaining to where responsibility lies for facilitating continued B/BMF, and on the perception of practitioners' attitudes, knowledge about, skills and providers' facilities for B/BMF. We recommend that care providers actively engage prospective parents in a discussion about how they can support continued B/BMF. This original data is contextualised and critically discussed within the wider literature with special attention being paid to the concepts of unintended consequences.Word count (excluding references): 5920

What can onto-epistemology reveal about Holocaust education? The case of audio-headsets at Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum This article adopts onto-epistemological framework for investigating pedagogical practices, focusing on the specific context of Holocaust education excursions to Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum (ABSM) and focusing on pedagogy in and through audio-headsets. It is based on an extensive dataset collected through ethnographic-inspired observations at ABSM, and focusing particularly upon three school-based excursion groups (two Scottish, one Norwegian). Through processes of spatial ordering and intra-action, we argue that the relationships comprising 'things' (e.g. students, exhibitions in the Museum, knowledges about the Holocaust) can be explored as more-and-less visible.
