Final Blog Assignment


Final Blog Assignment

I wish continued success for all of my colleagues. I have learned so much and have grown professionally because of what you have shared throughout the course of the term. Well I have learned that a consequence can be a negative and or a positive…with that said, one consequence I have learned about the field of international early childhood is that professionals from the United States and from abroad both share in the inequalities of early childhood and struggle to provide an equal education to all….another consequence is they way politicians fail to see the bigger picture and invest in youth….and finally I have learned that another consequence to working in the field of early childhood can push educators into taking roles they didn’t necessarily plan on taking i.e., becoming a resource,  an advocate and ect…
One goal I have as it relates to the field of international awareness is to try and unite with educators from abroad and listen to what does and does not work for them and form a community within my district so that we can modify some of our findings so that they apply appropriately to the students and families within the community I work in so that we can work towards children having an equal education and access to the resources that can provide a better quality of life.

  2. Nicky,
    I agree that ECE educators around the world have a lot to share with one another. All parts of the globe are being affected by changing demographics and poverty. Sharing effective solutions to these issues is a way to resolve them more quickly.

  3. Nicky,
    I agree with you that we take on roles we didn't expect when we began our journey as an early childhood professional. I wish you success in your future endeavors to reach out to professionals globally.
