Three consequences of learning about the international early childhood field for both my professional and personal development.
1. I’ve learned that I’m not alone; there are many people all around the world facing some of the same issues as we are in America. We are able to support each other by sharing and exchanging information and new ideas to help empower our communities globally.
2. I am now equipped with the necessary tools to educate others on my staff and within the community by sharing local resources and informing them of available programs. Thanks to this course, I have the ability to bring forth awareness of the various issues and trends within the early childhood arena as well as recommend get well plans.
3. I’ve learned that lack of funding is a global issue and that we have many families living on the streets because of it. However, we can do something to help these families by getting involved. We can help by volunteering our time, donating food and clothing, providing shelter, making monitory donations and most of all ADVOCATING.
one goal for the field related to international awareness of issues and trends and the spirit of collegial relations
4. My goal is to educate others on international awareness of issues and trends as well as build collegial relations. I want to stay connected with my international contact so that we can share valuable information that I can pass on to others. I also plan to create a list of international organizations and foundations that advocates for the health, safety and overall well-being of our children and their families. I will include some of the issues and trends our nation is facing globally and provide a list of websites and local resources to handout so that they can make contribution to support our children.

Brenda,
ReplyDeleteIt's great to see such passion and enthusiasm for eeducating others on the importance of early childhood educators. Like you, I have learned that the same issues affect many areas and we are fighting for the same thing...quality education for all of our children.
Brenda, I agree that we have learned that we are not alone and that we all globally are going through some of the same issues. Make sure you stick with your goals and I am sure you will achieve them. God Speed!!
ReplyDeleteKey word...Advocating. Great post! We need to make these issues important to everyone by advocating what for these counties. I have enjoyed reading your posts throughout the semester...best of luck in this class and future courses!
ReplyDeleteI first want to wish you all the success as you continue your early childhood journey and second I would agree no matter where one is located we all eventually will have the same issues when it comes to early childhood because of the lack of support and the support that is needed and finally I agree with your statement " I am now equipped with the necessary tools to educate others on my staff and within the community by sharing local resources and informing them of available programs".
