Final Blog: Issues and Trends

I want to start off by saying thank you to my international contacts for being so understanding and taking time out of their busy schedules to correspond with me. I would also like to thank each one of my course mates for all their posts and feedback on my posts. I have learned so much from each and every one of you.

The three consequences I discovered as as follows:

  1. There are the same issues being discussed around the world. Examples: quality care, poverty, issues with standards, etc.
  2. Quality care is the number one issue discussed among all that I have been in contact with.
  3. There is a need for a better compensation for educators and to provide better opportunities


    The goal that I would like to see implemented in the early childhood field is to create a universal set of standards.

    Again, thank you all for your support and I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.

  1. Catherine,

    Quality and accessibility is an issue that surrounds the early childhood field no matter the location. Developing programs to overcome these issues is vital. Compensation for teachers is an important step in ensuring quality and educated teachers are entering the field that truly care about the children and families being served. I have enjoyed reading your post the past 8 weeks. Good luck in the future:)
