Consequences of learning about the international side of the early childhood field.

 

1.      Awareness:  Being in the know of current issues and trends that affect children in other countries is important to the overall responsibility in which early childhood professionals as myself have pledged to do.  I believe that it’s important to know how that children from around the world are being supported not only because they deserve to be, but also because often time those same children end up as immigrants and may end up a student in my own class.

2.     Collaboration:  I think that the glory in working in this field, is that we are masters at sharing ideas and best practices.  So, to look at the international side of the early childhood field, and to share ideas with other professionals in other countries creates this human resource like no other.

3.     Helping towards the overall effort:  I believe that we must do all that we can to help spread how important early childhood education is.  We must do all that we can to push for early childhood initiatives in order to help young children get the support they need to develop.
