Part 1:
Establishing Professional Contacts
I have sent emails to six possible
sources of contact in the early childhood field. So far I have not had any replies, but am
hopeful. I will look into other alternative
possibilities in case I do not receive replies.
Part 2:
Expanding Resources
The early childhood organization I have
chosen to research is the Society for Research in Child Development. There is a section for members that will give
access to global members also and this may also help me with part 1. I looked at each of the possible organizations
and chose this one for several reasons.
It has extensive resources for research information, access to several
Early Childhood Journals, access to public policy updates, links to several
other organizations, interviews with major figures in the field of child
development, child psychology and other related fields. I feel the benefits are great enough that I
have subscribed to a membership.
I look forward to exploring this
organization and being able to share what I learn and discover with each of you
in my blog over the upcoming weeks. I
also look forward to learning more from each of your postings.

Hi Cindy
ReplyDeleteI am enrolled in Walden in Group Three. I wanted to make the connection with you. It was a great idea to email six organizations. I connected with two now think that I need to reach out to more groups.
Hi, So far I have had no replies. I am trying to contact more people. Have you had any luck yet? Cindy
DeleteHello Cindy: I also sent out couple of emails and really hope to get some answers back. It is interesting to learn from other parts of the world.

Hello Cindy,
ReplyDeleteAfter reading your post about Society for Research in Child Development, i think to add it to the list of organizations that i will be exploring. Thanks for the information
I think researching various organizations that focus on Child Development or Early Childhood Education can provide you with beneficial information. Therefore, contacting members who are apart of the organization will also help clarify unanswered questions and a wondering mind when addressing issues, concerns, and trends of Early Childhood Education.
