Blog Assignment: Research Around the World
Early Childhood Australia: http://www.earlychildhoodaustralia.org.au/
Some of the current international topics I found on this website:
Belonging, Being and Becoming
School readiness and children's transitions
Child health and childhood obesity
Sustainability, global warming and climate change.
This website was so informational. It contain so much I did not know where to start. I especially liked their mission statement:
Mission Statement: Early childhood Australia will advocate to ensure quality, social justice and equity in all issues relating to the education and care of children from birth to 8 years.
There were so many ideas I gained . There is a section that provides what's new on the Early childhood Australia website. This provides month by month news for every month. You can receive a free newsletter on the latest topic in education. As early childhood subscribers you can join their mailing list, which I think I will and also sign up for the free e-newsletter.
Other noteworthy information I found was:
The NAEYC position statement, there is an open access and web directory which we can use. Three is a featured product section which is a book titled; The Little Red Yellow Black book, this book can be purchased on line.
This website I will adding to my resource list for future reference. I hope for others in my class to visit this website there is so much research information available for our use. I think information and learning to research and gain information from around the world will help me to research for information for my research project, just by providing me with the knowledge that there is so much out there.
Linda, I agree. This was a wonderful site with an overload of resources and information.
ReplyDeleteI also liked the Early Childhood News tab. It offers great up to date information on the issues that Australia Early Education is dealing with for example the Federal Budget issue that seems to be a topic that Pennsylvania is having difficulty with as well.
I will also will have this website under my list of resources for future references.
Linda,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your blog entry and additional information about the Early Childhood Australia website. I am intrigued to go and check out the website based on the information you and other classmates have posted about this website.

I also looked at this website and I found myself clicking away and reading some great information! I found that this website would be very helpful for anyone that had a child in their life. I agree with you that I added this to my list of websites for future reference. I really liked the current topic and found that they were very similar to ours here in the United States.
