Over the weeks I have studied Issues and Trends in Early Childhood Education and have gained very valuable information as an ECE from a professional and personal perspective. Although I was unable to connect with an international contact, the site I chose NAEYC has a lot of information with regards to education and children. There are many consequences of learning about the international childhood field and the three I chose are:



          


   Awareness



                                                                      
                                                                                                                 



        Knowledge                                                                                                                                  
         


     Sharing


Being aware of current early childhood education programs in other countries and any issues they may experience and the knowledge we gain can help us to compare, collaborative and share their strengths, lessons learned, and diverse approaches for supporting early childhood development.  It is clear that as early childhood educators and advocates, we have a shared goals for young children and their families, despite the long distances between our home countries and the varying cultural perspectives from which we view the world.

  2. Dianna,

    I agree that we should all be aware of programs in other countries. I think that we could pick up valuable information and make it useful in our lives as educators. Knowledge is power!
