Professional and Personal Development

Throughout the course in Trends and Issues I have gained much valued information that has enhanced my knowledge. As I began to research how the early childhood field functioned on international bases good consequence resulted from this experience. One being the goals to help children and families were the same as here in the United States. Another is the passion to help children and families succeed is in the forefront of my collegial lives and third is how they advocate for the health and well being of the children. Personally I have gained a great respect for my collegial that live in third world countries and are pushing to educate the parents on the importance of a better education for their children. All children have a right to learn and do so in a safe and secure environment. One goal I have is to find ways to help the children internationally. I may not be able to go to these places however, I will be able to send resources through different organizations and help to advocate for a successful future for these children and families. Working together is the key.

  2. I think that when we have knowledge of international development of the early childhood field, it grows our professionalism. We may have different cultures and ways of doing things, but ultimately we are all out for the same thing, quality early childhood education. The children are out future whether here in the US or internationally. We should support each other!

I am especially moved by the fact that our passions all begin with the children and helping the to gain the knowledge they need and also to extend it to the parents and giving insight on helping the parents grow in the areas they need assistance also by giving them the support that they need.
