The steps I took in my effort to locating two professionals
out of the United States were the following:
·
I ask my co-workers/other early childhood
professionals that I know if they knew EC professionals outside of the U.S.
·
I contacted the University of Galway in Ireland
to try to find an EC professional to come in contact with.
·
I emailed my friend who is an au pair in Spain.
I asked her if the family she was an au pair for knew any EC professionals or
knew how to speak English who wouldn’t mind sharing insights with me on their
experiences.
As for now, I have not had any feedback in which made me
believe I will be able to contact an individual outside the U.S. Unless I hear
back in the near future, I believe I am going to have to choose the alternate
assignment for Part 1.
The website I decided to study is the The Global Alliance of
NAEYC. I chose this study because I know that NAEYC is a very important
organization within the early childhood field. I want to learn as much as I can
about it and I know it is important to do so. This is a perfect match for me
for this assignment.
Finding international contacts is a challenge I'm using some of my colleagues. I am currently living in Germany if I can help with you with our assignments I would be glad to assist. I like to use the NAEYC site to study.

ReplyDeleteFrom reading everyone's post, I think we are all having challenges making contact with someone outside the US. I have gotten to know the NAEYC website extremely well over the last year due to just completing the accreditation process. It is an excellent organization!!!
