Professional Hopes and Goals

This course has taught me a lot about diversity, equity, and social justice. The information I have obtained from the course will be beneficial for me as an early childhood professional. Children, their families and the community will also benefit from my knowledge. The course has provided useful information that can make helpful to everyone.

 

 One hope I have when I think about working with children and families who come from diverse backgrounds is ensure they feel comfortable. I want the children and families to feel that they belong and no isolated because they are different. I want the children and their families to feel proud of their culture. I want the children and the families to feel that I am interested in them. 

 One goal I would like to set for the early childhood field related to issues of diversity, equity and social justice is to ensure every student, their families and the community have the knowledge they need about culture and diversity, equity and social justice. I have always heard that knowledge is power. Providing the information is a great way to resolve some of the issues that we have to deal with when it comes to diversity, equity and social justice. The more we know about each other and our difference, we can begin to understand and embrace each other. Once we are able to embrace the differences, then we can take the necessary steps to resolve all the other issues.

As I complete the course, would like to thank my classmates for sharing their information with me. My classmates are very encouraging when it competes to providing and sharing information. Thank each of you from all of the information and knowledge you have shared. Sharing information based on your experiences have provided we with useful information I can use in the future.
