Final Blog Assignment

Note of Thanks:
I cannot believe that we are at the end of this semester already. I lhave learned so much from all of you. I have had the opportunity to interact with most of you, my colleagues in courses this far, and I have really enjoyed it. I cannot thank you enough for the support, knowledge, and sharing of resources that have and will continue to take me a step farther to pursue my dreams, as well as your dreams. I hope to hear from you in next semester's class.

Three consequences of learning about the international early childhood field for my personal and professional development:

1. I had the opportunity to work together and network  with an outside source to help in promoting positive development and change for young children and their families.

2. I learned about different job opportunities in different fields of education that were available in their countries as well as in the United States.

3.I had the opportunity to learn about the issues that children and families face globally, and how others can make an impact in helping.

Learning about international organizations and networking with my international partners was a grat experience as well as an eye opener. I learned so much, it was wonderful to learn about all the opportunities available to us in the early childhood field.

One goal for the field related to international awareness of issues and trends and the spirit of collegial relations:
International organizations are great resources and networking systems to have as an early childhood professional; staying in touch and becoming more involve with them will definitely be beneficial for future sucess in working and helping our young children and their families in keeping up with changes in the rest of the world.
