Research Around the World

I had an opportunity to examine the early childhood Australia website; www.earlychildhoodaustalia.org browsing through, I found information on many topics.  It was interesting to see that they have the same early childhood issues and concerns that we have in the United States.  The site included the latest discussions on teaching standards, quality care and a child’s right to play.
The most popular topic discussed was that of quality childcare and based on new recommendations, how some are showing improvements. It also touches on their National Quality Standards, which is something that has been discussed for years in the United States.
I also got a chance to browse through an area called RIP-which stands for Research in Practice.  Early Childhood Australia's Research in Practice Series is an essential resource for those involved in the early childhood field. The books are easy-to-read, idea-rich and to-the-point its a resource that offeres new approaches for challenging issues that arise in early childhood education.
