Final Blog Assignment:
Three consequences of learning about the international early childhood field for your professional and personal development
1. I had very little contact with my international contact, adding that I did share information from diverse websites. The small conversation and literature put into standpoint how far the field of early childhood education has come. Allowing me to be able to celebrate our comings and goings, not only thinking about where we have yet to go, but what we have not observed.
2. I gained insight into further development opportunities, shared professional development and training resources with my colleagues. I was able to share knowledge and encouragement about high quality studies in the early childhood field.
3. Understanding the ability to analyze from reliable viewpoints about issues and trends related to poverty, equity, economics, diversity, cultural and other disciplines it affects on children, their families, early childhood programs, and communities. I really gained a worldwide insight that committed me to this career.
One goal for the field related to international awareness of issues and trends and the spirit of collegial relations
I think we should always make use of the resources (no matter how stressful it may become) made available through this educational course as it brings attentiveness, a global perspective of serious issues affecting early childhood while providing a path of advocate for excellence for all children.
And finally….
THANK YOU! To all my classmates for your support, joining in on our weekly discussions, posts, and blogs. It gave me strength toward quality in this educational journey and to be more successful while preparing for the future.
Janet,
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed following your blog throughout our course and engaging in in-depth discussions about our course readings and media resources! You have offered me a great deal of expertise and perspective to take advantage of, thank you!
You identified very strong consequences, understanding ways of which to analyze issues and trends are really important. The three perspectives we address and learned were really helpful! I also appreciate your professional goal, remembering to continue our education and remain current on our studies in the field of early childhood education will contribute to not only professional development and success but to the success of future students and families that cross our paths!
Thank you again!

Janet,
ReplyDeleteI have enjoyed your perspective on issues. It is so interesting to see how some issues in early childhood are the same across the country while others remain regional. Keeping current is an understatement. Early childhood is changing and moving along so quickly that we must read and keep current in what is taking place.
Thanks so much for all your input. I quickly looked through the next class and I do not think we are in the same group but good luck to you in your future studies.
