Bu araştırmanın amacı, Türkiye’de Yapılandırmacı yaklaşımı uygulayan ve yurtdışında Reggio Emilia yaklaşımını uygulayan okul öncesi öğretmenlerinin çocuklarda düşünme becerisini geliştirmek için hangi stratejileri kullandıklarını belirleyerek, karşılaştırmalı olarak incelenmesidir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda araştırmanın çalışma grubunu, Türkiye’de Milli Eğitime bağlı anasınıflarında görev yapan 10 ve yurtdışında Reggio Emilia okullarında görev yapan 10 okul öncesi öğretmeni oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmaya ilişkin veriler nitel araştırma yöntemiyle toplanmıştır. Nitel verilerin analizinde betimsel analiz yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Araştırma verileri araştırmacılar tarafından hazırlanan yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formundaki soruların öğretmenlere sorulmasıyla elde edilmiştir. Öğretmenlere çocukların düşüncelerini belirlemede, yönlendirmede ve geliştirmede kullandıkları stratejileri belirlemeye yönelik açık uçlu sorular yöneltilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda, yurtdışında Reggio Emilia yaklaşımını uygulayan öğretmenlerin çocuklarda düşünme becerisini geliştirmek için soru sorma, gözlem yapma, materyal ve deneyim sunma, dökümantasyondan faydalanma stratejilerini kullandıkları; ancak, Türkiye’de yurtdışında Reggio Emilia yaklaşımını uygulayan öğretmenlerin dökümantasyondan faydalanma stratejisini hiç kullanmadıkları, diğer stratejileri ise yeteri kadar kapsamlı ve işlevsel kullanmadıkları belirlenmiştir.
