EXPLORATION
FOR EXCELLENCE AND EQUITY:
ECE
IN THREE DOMAINS
EDUC
6162
OVERVIEW
In order to achieve excellence and equity in ECE
resources have to remain existing. To look at issues concerning the field of
ECE, websites are offered so that professionals and audiences remain
collaborative and aware for child sake and development. With helpful resources,
I have found that they are there to help tackle issues such as threat toward
excellence and shift of equity.
Harvard University offers a website that I have
found very resourceful this week. Their website, “Global Children’s Initiative”
provides information about professionals all around the world who are a part of
ECE and who help deviate bad behavior toward equity. Research and projects are
two advantages to ease the issues of excellence and equity.
THREE
INSIGHTS- THE THREE DOMAINS
1.
Global Children’s Initiative shares
information of the scientific knowledge Brazil
has assimilated through their growing organization, NCPI. Scientific
knowledge about child development is collaborative, informative, and effective
when deviating bad behavior of equity is a rising concern to professionals in
the field of ECE. It is effective communication that I find insightful between
looking at a scientific approach to child development and the research and/or
focus it has on child development.
2.
In Canada, the AFWI advocates child development toward public policies
that ought to support equity in ECE. The AWFI separates the “what we know” and
the “what we do” through research and public awareness with reference to child
development. It is insightful to know that there are efforts taken globally to
see children are thought of.
3.
Global Children’s Initiative shares
areas of the world who dedicate time to the excellence of children and equity
in ECE. In Mexico, the Acceleradora
de Innovacion para la Primera Infancia has professionals who create and propose
projects such as parent-child interaction projects and projects that are
play-focused for children so family participation and public support bridge
together the importance of excellence and equity. It is the time and assistance
children receive that makes the world better as I see it. Cheers to that!
IN
ADDITION
Excellence and equity are fundamental to ECE and
child development. Globally, professionals are finding ways to help children and
to see that every child succeeds. Research and projects help support child
development which is why I find Harvard University’s “Global Children’s
Initiative” website to be very resourceful as I aspire in the field of ECE. When
thinking of children, you have to think globally so that EVERY child remains
thought of and that excellence and equity are achieved.

Thanks for your post, Cassie!! I definitely agree that excellence and equity is the foundation of preparing our students. It is not just for the ones in our classes, but for all the children over the world, struggling with different situations they find themselves in daily. It is great that we have so many different kinds of projects that would support the children across the world in the ECE years. I do think that these program make a change to families and children, even if it goes one by one!
ReplyDeleteThere is a foundation we just have to honor it as I am appreciating it more. Seeing that there is a plathora of resources out there. It’s humble to know children are not alone in this fight to succeed. And it’s amazing to know the places that offer such assistance.
DeleteCassie,
ReplyDeleteAs usual very good post! Excellence and equity is the start for all children especially our young ones. Honestly I never knew the emphasis from different organizations that support the field of EC which I have been in so long but without this knowledge! Thank you God bless.
I never knew how many organizations were out there until these past few weeks. The week we had to expand horizons really helped to understand it is important to know as many places and programs as possible to help in the success of working with and/or for children. Thank you for the feedback!
DeleteCassie,
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed your blog. You brought some very important points. We must focus on working to achieving excellence and equity in the early childhood field. It is our responsibility to promote confidence and integrity and the the ability to be successful at an early age. Every child can learn and we need to reach the child on their level. I really enjoyed your post.
Hi Cassie,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your blog, The Global Children's Initiative was a wonderful website for educator's to review. The website provided information about there mission, opportunities for college students and even working with organizations around the globe. Your three insights on Brazil, Canada and Mexico are also great to learn about there growth and projects they are conducting in there countries.
Thanks for sharing
