The Personal Side of bias, Prejudice, and Oppression


The Personal Side of bias, Prejudice, and Oppression

My hope is when I am working with children and families who come from diverse backgrounds is to be able to provide them with the best understanding to their culture and valued them without listening to the misconception from media and others. This includes having extra effort to search and be aware of their culture. To have that welcoming classroom environment for all children and their families.

One goal I would like to set for early childhood field that is related to issues of diversity, equity, and social justice is to develop a program that increased the interaction between schools to home activities to create an effective interaction relationship. 

Thank you to my colleagues for all their feedback, positive comments, encouraging comments that leave a positive impact that makes a change. Throughout the 8 weeks, I have learned from their experiences and personal stories that have become a learning experience for all. Thank you for all your support and teamwork that makes this course to be beneficial for all of us.

Meaningful NAEYC Ideals to My profession The Three Ideals in the NAEYC and DEC codes of ethics that are meaningful to my profession are. * “To recognize and respect the unique qualities, abilities, and potential of each child.” Every child is a treasure. To look, seek, and dig out the quality values that every child has. Every child is capable of blooming in different timing which makes every child unique and special. As a teacher I deal with children based on their potential by nurturing and care with patience and love. Children need time to meet and know their ability and capacity of learning.         ** “To welcome all family members and encourage them to participate in the program.” Family is the key of love. When every family feels the need to be in the program to participate in different activities throughout the year that will lead and gain benefit and enjoy in the program. Every family member is a part of the program and to make it succe...

Access to healthy water Access to healthy water is vital to human life itself; so the impact it has on a developing child is of immeasurable size. In fact, a child with no access to healthy water will no doubt become sick. Once the body is troubled with an unhealthy source of water, it will lack the nutrients required for other organs such as the kidney, heart, and brain. Once these deductions become a problem, signals are sent to the brain to help dissolve these problems. However, if the brain is not able to focus on learning and development, the child will constantly fall behind in development and in other categories such as motor skills. An example of this comes from the country of Yemen, where fresh water is extremely scarce. In fact, only about 25% of the population has access to clean water; this means that child development is a huge struggle within the country. Although the conservative culture of the country inspires its children to be tough and to pursue education no m...

Global Fund for Children “ We support education from children’s earliest years to secondary school and on through university or vocational training.”    ( The Global Fund for children) The website has the same agendas in the field of education for the youth. Through working together to help end the lack of education, the fund focuses on beating poverty and similar issues through education. It sees education as a means of success, as we do here as well within the course. In order to be successful and be better off than their families, the children are provided with tools for education. Once this education is received, they can get out of the poverty and shambles they are currently in. For us, we can help students here do the absolute same. On the website, it says that “we advise, mentor and guide our partners”. This is a bit shaky because it does not look like this is a relationship of partners. Personally, this global fund is the hand on the top; the ...
