I have had a wonderful experience at Walden University. It has been a great program and am so glad I am about to be a graduate of Walden!! I have learned techniques on teaching adults that I plan to implement in a class I will be teaching starting this fall. I look forward to using these techniques well into the future.
My writing skills have improved dramatically since class one. I am very proud of what I have accomplished over the last ten classes. I was able to use the information I learned in my classes and apply it to my job. There were many times I would go to work and tell them about the articles I read for my class.
My goal is to continue advocating for children no matter where the road takes me in the future.
I wish Dr. Ferrari and all of my classmate’s great success in the future. I hope everyone is able to reach their goals and they accomplish great things in the early childhood field. I want to leave with the saying below. To me, it is important when you are working with children and adults.
Humans learn
10% of what they read,
20% of what they hear,
30% of what they see,
50% of what they see & hear,
70% of what is discussed,
80% of what is experienced, & 95% of what you actively teach.
(Hannaford, 1995)
Talking about writing skills, it is amazing to see the growth from the first course and now at the end. Be proud of yourself. Wishing you all best for the future. I have truely enjoyed this journey.

ReplyDeleteThat was a brilliant quote and I think it summed up this program and how it is important to be an advocate and positive role model in a child's life.
