I can't believe that it has been a year since I decided to join this journey into receiving my Masters. It wasn't something that I thought about for a long time, I literally attended NAEYC and met a professor. I have learned so much in my journey! Although I wasn't always happy on Wednesdays, Saturday and Sunday because that was when assignments were due, it was nice to read all of your post and discussions. Thank you colleagues for providing your points of views and challenging my thinking. There were times when I had to reflect on a discussion post that was written because it was so different from my view, but I was able to understand the topic through your lens, which made our assignments more meaningful.
I remember being really nervous about joining an online community, but really glad that I have had some great interactions with you all! Now that the journey is almost over, I wish you nothing but the best of luck in your specializations!
If you every need me, leave a comment on my blog!

Reflecting on Communication in the Early Childhood Field
ReplyDeleteDear Cierra,
Our time together in this course was brief, but in no uncertain terms as we have met before in previous courses, and are now here again, I am certain we will cross paths in the future. Nonetheless, I want to express to you how grateful I am to have met you, learn from you and be able to share with you all that I am which is early childhood. You have shared with us how you learnt to improve your communication skills from the way your mother influenced you to being an adult in the workforce and knowing that what you experienced at home may not necessarily be the best way to deal with certain situations. You have reinforced in me, from that experience, the importance of effective communication. Thank you also for taking the time out to read my discussion posts and blogs and not just scrolling past but also leaving a comment. It really meant a lot to me. As you progress and is now one step closer to your academic goal, I wish for you all the success in the field and encourage you always to address the problem and not the person when handling your communication with stakeholders in this beautiful field.
Thanks again and I look forward to meeting you again.
