Final Blog Assignment

I will start off saying that I have learned a lot from this course. My colleagues and I have shared information among each other that will help me in the classroom and out of the classroom. I did enjoy reading some of the colleagues international contacts, unfortunately I didn't hear from no one. I did get on Facebook, and saw some students from Walden that were from other countries. I read and saw pictures some posted showing what their classrooms look like in Africa, or Nigeria. I have learned that the international field faces some issues that we are facing. I learned that some are struggling with training just like we are. Some need better funding for schools, better healthcare. I can say they want the best for their children just like we do in the United States. It is a shame that the early childhood field is so behind. They are wanting their children to receive high-quality care as well. We are all fighting and advocating for our children and families to receive the care and learning to make them successful in life. We all know that early education is a foundation for all children.

My goal for the field related to international awareness of issues and trends and the spirit of collegial relations to get high-quality care for all children, and keep facilitating for family involvement. my colleagues know that no matter the color, race or creed of a child; they need to be in a program that promotes learning and parent involvement. The children needs a staff that is efficient. my goal is to keep pushing for a change. Every child needs to learn.

I wish all my colleagues the best! I have truly enjoyed all of you! May God keep blessing you with the knowledge and guidance you need in this field. To my colleagues that have never taught in a classroom, always know that there is nothing that you can't do! I wish everyone the best!

"In the early childhood , you may lay the foundation of poverty or riches, industry of idleness, good or evil, by the habits to which you train your children. teach them right habits, then, and their future.life is safe-Lydia Sigourney

  1. Dear GHillard,

    I have also learned a lot from this course and also refuted some of my early assumptions too. I saw some professional contacts on facebook too. My regret is that I am yet to register with the NAEYC website as planned.
    I love your goal - international awareness on issues and trends and the spirit of collegial relationships. My me this goal will help me be a more experienced professional. Because, referring to what Ms. Vasquez said in the course video, experience (and mentorship) added to education improves the quality of the teacher.

    Thanks,
    Blessing
