Free ECE Webinar: High-Quality Practices in Low-Resource Settings

Because they care deeply about the work they do with young children, educators want to offer impactful learning experiences. Early learning providers can wrestle with some big questions, like: Where do you look for high-quality early childhood practices? How do you know when you have found them? Do you rely on assessments on a clipboard or follow protocols in binders and manuals? Or, do you follow a “gut feeling”?

Quality matters, of course, as does the way we define and measure quality, and, especially, where we look for and find quality. Join this webinar, hosted by Early Learning Investigations and presented by early childhood researcher, Junlei Li, Ph.D. to explore how you can identify the practices that support children even where/when resources are meager. 

In this session, participants will…

• Re-examine long-held assumptions about the relationship between “resources” and “quality ( and quality ratings).”
• Introduce practical and theoretical approaches that help us identify and describe high-quality practices in low-resource settings.
• Explore what lessons we can re-apply to understand quality everywhere, support early childhood professions, and envision policies that appreciate people more than “stuff.”
