The topic I
have chosen for my research is Understanding the benefits to quality
early childhood education opportunities.
The topic I chose for the simulation was " Identify research
subtopic and review related research literature." I chose this topic as I have been encouraged
and challenged to know more and get started on this big paper soon! I am finding great resources on the NAEYC site. There are also many state sites that I have
visited comparing the standards for Early Educators skill requirements as it
directly relates to teacher qualifications.
If you are a teacher within an early childhood program, what are the
necessary requirements you need to have obtained in order to be
"qualified" to teach within your state?
Doing this simulation is helping to understand the literature at a
different level. While there are big
words, like big words I can't even retype correctly when attempting to document,
these big words I look up their meaning and by the time I am half way through
the definition I am lost. Forcing myself
to re-word these definitions is helping to gain a deeper understanding of the
topics and text. What do you do when you
don't know a word. You know, those big
words that have too many consonants and not enough vowels to sound it out. :)
