Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clearly babies come into the world remarkably receptive to its wonders. Their alertness to sights, sounds, and even abstract concepts makes them inquisitive explorersâ€"and learnersâ€"every waking minute. Well before formal schooling begins, children's early experiences lay the foundations for their later social behavior, emotional regulation, and literacy. Yet, for a variety of reasons, far too little attention is given to the quality of these crucial years. Outmoded theories, outdated facts, and undersized budgets all play a part in the uneven quality of early childhood programs throughout our country. What will it take to provide better early education and care for our children between the ages of two and five? Eager to Learn explores this crucial question, synthesizing the newest research findings on how young children learn and the impact of early learning. Key discoveries in how young children learn are reviewed in language accessible to parents as well as educators: findings about the interplay of biology and environment, variations in learning among individuals and children from different social and economic groups, and the importance of health, safety, nutrition and interpersonal warmth to early learning. Perhaps most significant, the book documents how very early in life learning really begins. Valuable conclusions and recommendations are presented in the areas of the teacher-child relationship, the organization and content of curriculum, meeting the needs of those children most at risk of school failure, teacher preparation, assessment of teaching and learning, and more. The book discusses: Evidence for competing theories, models, and approaches in the field and a hard look at some day-to-day practices and activities generally used in preschool. The role of the teacher, the importance of peer interactions, and other relationships in the child's life. Learning needs of minority children, children with disabilities, and other special groups. Approaches to assessing young children's learning for the purposes of policy decisions, diagnosis of educational difficulties, and instructional planning. Preparation and continuing development of teachers. Eager to Learn presents a comprehensive, coherent picture of early childhood learning, along with a clear path toward improving this important stage of life for all children.

Download or read book New Teachers for a New Century written by and published by Services. This book was released on 2000 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the reign of the Kingdom of Burgundy at the Rhone River (about 443-534) a Burgundian church developed with an "Arian"-homoian profile. This led to disputes, but also to an intensive theological exchange with the predominantly Nicene Gallo-Roman population and with Bishop Avitus of Vienne. For the first time, this monograph provides selected letters and fragments written by Avitus, with German translation and annotation, which indicate problems of church organization and refer to discourses on religion and theological discussions - in particular on the Holy Spirit (filioque) - in order to clarify more exactly the meaning of "Arian" at that time.

Download or read book Cornerstones for a New Century written by Ernest L. Boyer and published by NEA Professional Library. This book was released on 1992 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three essays put forth recommendations for improving various aspects of American education. The first essay, "Teacher Preparation," focuses on the impact of several social, global, and technological trends on American schools and teacher education. In light of these trends, it is concluded that teachers must understand the ways in which America is changing and be prepared to help the growing numbers of disadvantaged children. They must also have a global perspective and see that the world is a global village that is politically transformed, economically connected, and ecologically imperiled. Teachers must help students cooperate rather than compete and find ways to use technology to help the learning process. Finally, in light of the stressful home lives of many children, they must understand how deeply these children are in need, and be caring as well as competent. The second essay, "Early Childhood Education," proposes six national objectives for early education: (1) good nutrition for every child; (2) universal preschool education for every disadvantaged child; (3) the establishment of nongraded Basic Schools that combine grades K-4; (4) classes of no more than 15 students; (5) evaluation to ensure that students have basic language and computation skills before leaving 4th grade; and (6) intergenerational connections. The final essay, "A National Education Index," recommends the creation of a set of nationwide standards that would serve as a framework for state accountability. The proposed index would include standards for student achievement, the conditions of teaching, school climate, school finance, accountability and intervention, and school partnerships with parents and the business community.

Download or read book Transforming the Workforce for Children Birth Through Age 8 written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2015-07-23 with total page 587 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children are already learning at birth, and they develop and learn at a rapid pace in their early years. This provides a critical foundation for lifelong progress, and the adults who provide for the care and the education of young children bear a great responsibility for their health, development, and learning. Despite the fact that they share the same objective - to nurture young children and secure their future success - the various practitioners who contribute to the care and the education of children from birth through age 8 are not acknowledged as a workforce unified by the common knowledge and competencies needed to do their jobs well. Transforming the Workforce for Children Birth Through Age 8 explores the science of child development, particularly looking at implications for the professionals who work with children. This report examines the current capacities and practices of the workforce, the settings in which they work, the policies and infrastructure that set qualifications and provide professional learning, and the government agencies and other funders who support and oversee these systems. This book then makes recommendations to improve the quality of professional practice and the practice environment for care and education professionals. These detailed recommendations create a blueprint for action that builds on a unifying foundation of child development and early learning, shared knowledge and competencies for care and education professionals, and principles for effective professional learning. Young children thrive and learn best when they have secure, positive relationships with adults who are knowledgeable about how to support their development and learning and are responsive to their individual progress. Transforming the Workforce for Children Birth Through Age 8 offers guidance on system changes to improve the quality of professional practice, specific actions to improve professional learning systems and workforce development, and research to continue to build the knowledge base in ways that will directly advance and inform future actions. The recommendations of this book provide an opportunity to improve the quality of the care and the education that children receive, and ultimately improve outcomes for children.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Entering pre-school is the most critical part of the learning experience of a child. It has to be accomplished in a careful manner way to make sure that it won’t scare a child. This process has to be executed together with an extensive preparation to make sure that it will provide amazing improvements and changes in the learning habit of a child. Parents play an important role in the process of preparing their children to enter pre- school. There are so many factors to consider in the process of preparing a child for preschool. Such factors will be enumerated one by one in this new pre- school guide for parents. Parents will be able to make the learning experience of their children in preschool more comfortable and totally free from stressful moments that can affect their learning habits negatively. Improper preparation for preschool can hinder a child’s desire to further their education further on in life. Such situations usually increases the rate of out-of-school-youth. Parents should always try to determine the most effective way to prepare a child for preschool to make sure that their children won’t be discouraged to study and to work harder for their future. Preschool serves as the initial stage of the learning process for a child. It has to be provided with enjoyable moments and it should not be scary and full of stressful moments. This will make sure that it won’t destroy the future of a child. There are many steps to follow in order to determine if the child will be successful in a preschool environment. Parents should not hesitate to consider the requests and desires of their children while preparing for an upcoming opening in a preschool. It is true that parents are responsible for securing the future of their children. But when it comes to the process of entering preschool, the only thing that matters most is the willingness of a child to learn. Entering preschool should not be introduced to a child as a compulsory process. Parents should not force their children to enter preschool if not prepared. There’s a need to check the age and learning preparedness of a child while preparing for preschool. It is good to encourage a child to enter preschool at the age of three or four. Parents should not hesitate also to asses if their children can read the alphabet and count numbers on their own. These are skills that will help their children be more prepared and ready for preschool in the upcoming school year. While preparing for preschool, parents should train their children to become more organized and prepared for their daily activities. One of the excellent ways to make this type of training easier and more convenient for a child to execute is to create a time schedule. The time schedule must contain all activities that a preschooler has to execute at home and at school every day. Make sure that a child won’t be over- prepared for preschool for such mistakes can create negative effects in the learning habit of a preschooler. Let Us Know What You Think!
