Week 8-Final Blog Assignment


Three consequences of learning about the international early childhood field:

1) Understanding that the issues related to the perception of early childhood educators around the world is similar to here in the US, helps us see the global need for advocacy in our profession.

2) Reading my colleagues posts who have been able to make contact with EC educators around the world helps me to realize the resources that we have on a daily basis that we take for granted.

3) Learning about the early childhood field and how it is addressed globally assists in broadening our focus on how to build a brighter future for children not only within our community, but around the world.

One goal for the field related to international awareness of issues and trends and the spirit of collegial relations is for there to be in increase in resources which allow for open communication between various early childhood organizations and professions as a forum for sharing ideas, resources and brainstorming challenges related to the EC field.

  3. Megan,

    Thank you for sharing the information that you have learned over the past 8 weeks. I agree that there are many issues that occur internationally and also in the United States. These include poverty, inequality in education and the lack of a set universal standard. I like that you mentioned the value of having a more open communication. Thank you for sharing!
