Throughout the course, I have been provided with a plethora of resources that have given me insight on early childhood care and education around the world. I was shocked to find out that languages may be different and culture may change, but the principles of how children learn pretty much remain the same. There are several consequences to learning about early childhood programs around the world and I am excited to share them with you.
The first consequence is that I would like to travel to another country to teach. I think this would immerse me in another culture and allow me to practice what I have learned with a different group of students. Another consequence is that I have embraced the concerns and barriers of all cultures and have attempted to address them within my classroom. The third consequence is that I am encouraged to stay abreast of information that might give me insight on how to reach students who come from different countries and who speak different languages. It has helped me to increase my awareness of my ability to provide an equitable and excellent education to the students I teach.
One goal that I have for the early childhood field is to provide more interactions with early childhood specialists and teachers from other countries, and even opportunities to swap classrooms and experiences.
