Resumen

Este artículo ofrece una visión global sobre cómo se desarrolla la educación infantil en los países nórdicos y describe experiencias innovadoras de esta etapa educativa en cada uno de ellos. Como países nórdicos están incluidos Dinamarca, Suecia, Noruega, Finlandia e Islandia, junto con los territorios dependientes de estos, es decir, Groenlandia y las islas Svalbard, Jan Mayen, Feroe y Åland. Las innovaciones educativas descritas en cada uno de los países no son exclusivas de ese país, pero todas ellas configuran un marco de desarrollo de las consideradas habilidades del siglo XXI. Todas las iniciativas se desarrollan en torno al niño como protagonista del proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje; la participación activa, la reflexión, la comunicación, la capacidad de resolver problemas de forma creativa y el uso de herramientas de pensamiento son algunas de las habilidades desarrolladas por estas iniciativas en pro del concepto de educación como capital humano, donde los niños son vistos como recursos fundamentales para la formación de una sociedad igualitaria, autónoma, proactiva y parte de un conjunto sistémico.
