When I
first started my classes with Walden University the idea of advocacy scared me.
I thought it was too big for me. That it involved far too much politics that I
did not want to participate in. Then I began researching policies and practices
of early childhood education.
With
this course I was able to learn how to break down the stereotype of political
advocacy as the only way to promote change. I now know that I can create
positive change through small steps.
I have
learned that collaboration and communication through peers is the best way to
refine passion into a measurable goal.
I have
also learned that everyone can make a difference if they become informed and
strategically approach a problem.
I hope
to apply the research methodologies and applicable tips from all of my fellow colleagues
as an early childhood educator.
Thank
you SO much to all who have struggled through each class with me! I might be
crazy enough to keep going for a doctorate, who is with me!? Hahaha
