My first unintended consequence was learning how poverty
affects Early Childhood education in the United States as well as many
countries. The weekly research assignments
allowed me to see how inequalities surrounding poverty affects the availability
to educate children. I have also learned
how poverty affects children and families in my own demographic area. The international connections and podcast
have allowed me to see how Global organizations are assisting in ensuring that all
children receive an early educational encounter.
The second intended consequence was learning more about the viewpoints
of Early Childhood Education in other countries. Generally, I really enjoyed communicating with
others in foreign territories as well as meeting new people that are as passionate
as me about educating young children.
My last unintended consequence was learning that our
country, the United States of America, is changing the way that children are
learning. This is based on what children
are learning globally. According to Dr. Grace, she has revealed that our
educational standards are being devised from the top grade level down to Early
Childhood so that our graduates will know the same things as other students are
learning globally.
My goal
is to continue to make a difference in the lives of children and their families. There
are many issues surrounding Early Childhood education that makes children feel not
equal to others. One of my professional
goals is to open a business that caters to educating children and families in
poverty and low-income neighborhood. I’ve enjoyed reading the weekly posts from
my colleagues and I really appreciate the comments made on my posts. I’m
wishing my colleagues good luck in continuing their professional and
educational path at Walden University.
