PART
1
This week, we have been asked to establish
professional contact with an early childhood professional from other parts of
the world. I emailed five professionals from other parts of the world to
establish professional contact with them. And I did this by visiting the website
of Global Alliance for the Education of Young Children and I used my Walden email
address so they know am a student with the university. Most of the mails I sent
failed as they said user unknown.
I chose professionals from Nigeria, South Africa,
Singapore, Ireland, Kazakhstan, and China.
For the professional in Nigeria, I also called her
on phone and I was able to make contact with her. She said she won’t mind to be
my contact but when I start to email her questions she is sorry that she might
not be able to respond as at when due and that my instructor might not believe
that I have established contact with her. I tried calling the professional in
South Africa but it went to voice mail, so I will try again later. I also used
my LinkedIn to contact early childhood professional and so far I have been able
to get connected to one professional in the US. I am crossing my fingers to get positive response from him soon.
Has anyone been able to establish a contact yet? I will appreciate how you went about that.
PART
2
For part 2 this week I looked at different
educational website and I subscribed to most of them. But I have decided to
narrow my choice on the British Association for Early Childhood Education and
the Early Childhood Australia. I chose these two because their early childhood
curriculum is in a way in terms of the area of development and I work in a
school that runs the British curriculum. I have subscribed to their newsletters
and am hoping to receiving them quite soon.
