Expanding More: Sharing Web Resources
The National Association for the Education of Young Children
(NAEYC), the World Forum which hosts podcasts, and other early childhood
organizations that I have mentioned in past Blogs have helped expand new
horizons and new behavior toward the field of Early Childhood Education for me.
I have gotten the chance to explore some pretty awesome organizations that do
so much for children and families and the act of dedication and kindness,
passion, and even struggle is a real attention grabber. As an aspiring educator,
I have come to realize that I have to continue my pace in the sharing of
resources and I was allowed this week to find yet another resource that I have
never heard of that I wanted to share.
An Outsider- An outside resource I have found is
the Association for Childhood Education International (ACEI). This organization
leads to advocacy of children through knowledge, professionalism, and
creativity on a global scale. Collaboration promotes optimal education for
young children onto adolescence which I find rather exceptional and worthy to
share. ACEI is working to create a social change toward learning and
development universally.
I Found It!- I found that in order for children
around the world to receive the education deserved, it has become the ACEI’s
highest priority. 35% of children are out of school worldwide because there is
a lack of awareness, resources, and access. War and terror conflict opportunity for education when families are struggling to ensure
education for their children. That is heartbreaking… 90% of children worldwide
who are disabled are left without the proper equipment and attention needed in
a classroom setting so they miss learning opportunity and development. The ACEI
commits to global interactions to make sure all children have opportunity to
education even in areas of war or lack or equipment. Organizations provide the
support! This is something worth finding out!
Equity is Excellence- the Association for Childhood
Education International (ACEI) broadens a deeper understanding to me the
importance of early childhood education and the need for continuous support,
expansion, and funds to reach children of all areas around the world deprived of
education. By commitment and advocacy, ACEI shows equity by demonstrating the
importance of child care and education and that every child deserves equal
opportunity. By this demonstration, excellence is showcased.
Insightful- NEVER STOP SHARING RESOURCES. NEVER
STOP LOOKING AT RESOURCES. New information is available every day to those that
are inspired of children and the support they need for child learning and
development. Organizations like the ACEI are built to support and care for
children all over the world which I find insightful. Teams are planning,
supporting, improvising, and dedicating personal time and passion everywhere. I
can only honor the resources I share and dedicate my own time as I aspire in
the field of Early Childhood Education and aspire to take part.

Cassie,
ReplyDeleteWow do agree so many organizations that focused on the awareness of early childhood. Thank you for even introducing outside organizations such as Association for Childhood Education International.In your last paragraph "never stop sharing resources. never stop looking for resources which is a srong and true statement for us as educators to collaborate, grow, help produce successful learners of our future.
Hello Scandi,
DeleteThank you for the feedback. It is important to keeping searching even as professionals. I like to share international resources because outside my box children are struggling just for the attention they need to survive. I look at my new class of students and I’m reminded that I need to share and continue to teach.
Dear Cassandra, thank you for sharing this great resource ( ACEI)! I was not familiar with it and will definitely take a closer look.
ReplyDeleteYour welcome! I was pretty excited to find this new resource that contributes so many insights and information. It’s worth taking a closer look!
DeleteCassandra,
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed your blog.I must say I have never heard about this organization. This organization works on the international level supporting the education for all children and their families. I really gained a lot of information from this resource and plan to refer to it for time to time.
Hello LaShawn,
DeleteYes it does look at areas we often forget are in need for education. It does provide support for children, families, and educators which I find makes the field of ECE worth working for. Like I said, we have to keep searching resources because even though each organization has the same common goal that child education comes first, each resource has something new they want to advocate.
ACEI seems like the perfect website to go along with our studies this week. We read about barriers and you mentioned many barriers that are going on in this world. We need to be more aware of our children not in school and you also mentioned that some children do not have the right equipment in their classroom to assist them. This website sounds like a great sharing resource to make others aware of the lack of effort some countries are putting in for education.
