Personal Research Journey

Thinking about the 3 subtopics that I developed last week about inclusion in early childhood field, I have chose my stimulation to be advantages for children with development disabilities to be in an inclusive early childhood program. 

 I chose these stimulation because I have experience working in an inclusion early childhood setting and saw the positive impacts it brings to children and families.  Being in an inclusion setting we were a small community where we protected one another and saw each others abilities rather than disabilities.  I also came from a family of special education teachers that share a passion for working with individuals with disabilities. 

I look forward to gathering more information about my chosen stimulation.  The Research Chart is building my knowledge and assisting me in learning vocabulary that is needed during this course and a lifetime as an educator. 

To my colleagues:
      I wish you the best of luck in researching your stimulation.  If you have any insights or advice about the chosen stimulation please feel free to share!  I also look forward to all advice and insight about research.

  1. I applaud you on your research simulation about children with disabilities in an exclusive early childhood program. I believe this can definitely enhance the knowledge and education of those students. This would also encourage parents to pursue more information on education for their children that are disabled.

  2. Lorren,
    There is so much to learn about children with disabilities. In all my years in early childhood, I cannot say that I know very much about children with disabilities and even less about working with them. That must be a very rewarding experience for you. I can definitely understand why you want to research this topic. Many times in these situations, educators fail because they simply do not have the knowledge to deal with what they are given. The more information and the more resources educators have on children with disabilities, the more successful they can be. Thanks for your post and for the work you do!
