Early Childhood on an International Scale!

There are a multitude of positive consequences for being actively aware of early childhood issues and trends throughout the world.  However, there are three that really stick out for me!  One, it is essential to stay abreast of world/global impact of early childhood education in other countries.  It is important as an ECE advocate to know where there are great ideas and trends and where I can serve as a support and a resources.  Second, being aware of issues and trends in ECE throughout the world causes reflection about issues and trends in my current/local area.  This allows a certain focus and a "bringing of attention to" how similar issues are being handled right here in my own home.  And finally, learning and reviewing from other ECE professionals globally gives me new insight, new ideas and new information about issues and trends that I may not have thought of previously.  It is a great platform for producing and sharing ideas in our field.

One goal for all early childhood educators to focus on when coordi8nating with each other is to create world wide advocates for what is best for children; their health, their education and their families.  The more voices that are fighting for what is right, the stronger and louder we will become!


Thank you everyone for a great class and see you in September!!!!
