| Abstract | Research on out-of-home child care has revealed that foster care programmes focused on educational attainment and reading have the potential to improve the academic outcomes of children in care. However, no studies have examined which elements of these programmes positively benefit childrens emotional well-being. This article presents evidence of the positive effects of implementing a successful educational action, dialogic literary gatherings, in a childrens residential care institution. A qualitative study using a communicative-oriented methodology was conducted and involved five participant observations and eight daily life stories with children in out-of-home care in Catalonia (Spain). The childrens reflections demonstrated that reading classic books, such as Dickens Oliver Twist, deeply influenced their feelings and self-conceptions and created new and exciting meaning in their lives. © 2017 John Wiley & Sons Ltd |
Research on out-of-home child care has revealed that foster care programmes focused on educational attainment and reading have the potential to improve the academic outcomes of children in care. Particularly in Catalonia that is the area where our study was conducted nearly children and adolescents up to years of age are in the care of the Catalan government. According to participant reflections the effect of the intervention is TABLE Codification of data Categories Respectful and demonstrated in the previously described four dimensions: in the participants ability to cohabit with others in the school in their increased awareness of the reality of others improving the participants relationships in their ability to express their own experiences in a safe and respectful environment which ultimately improved the participants academic skills. In our analysis we observed that educa- tional actions such as the DLG which have been considered effective evidencedbased interventions in social work are mitigating the violence and health problems experienced in the centres or problems previously experienced by minors when the children lived with their families. First the article dem- onstrates that DLGs contribute to improving relationships among ado- lescents and workers relationships that are free of violence.
