I chose the Association for Childhood Education International
website. I searched for a variety of information under the website and found several resources that include membership online registration, a link to a featured program which is the Institute for International Education Diplomacy which looks like a great program for educators that are willing to communicate with other educators across the world and share great ideas on children and their education. I also found a link to the Association for Childhood Education internet radio (ACEI Radio) and listened to a professional discuss his thoughts on childhood education curriculum around the world and mentioned a second volume from the first book he published. This radio cast gave me food for thought on information regarding curriculum across the globe.

From what I understand this association is a global community that supports children, their education, and examines current issues that seem to be familiar across the globe. For example within the link to Global News follows several headlines of common topics that I believe educators in America have conversations about such as supporting quality education, family involvement, children’s rights, and training teachers just to name a few. It seems a majority of issues educator’s face with child education is Universal. I believe the organizations focus is to provide peaceful global communities. A community that comes together as a whole from different parts of the world with the main focus set on child education. A global community that communicates with each other with not only sharing issues and current events but also positive ideas and practices composed from a variety of studies with children that everyone can understand.
Studying and exploring a variety of links throughout this website encouraged my thoughts on child education. I found myself nodding my head and saying to myself “hmm that’s interesting and I wonder what it would be like to be not only an educator but a member of this Association, or a delegate traveling the world discussing information on children and their education that is so neat!” This may sound funny but I got excited about an educator participating in home visits here in the small town I live in. I found traveling to different states and observe other childhood programs even better. When I learned educators are able to travel out of the country to observe children I found this amazing! I started to wonder is it really possible for an educator is able to be employed and travel as part of the job? It was almost as if I forgot about just reaching the goal of certification in just one state and thought about reaching the goal of becoming a traveling educator. I began contemplating on saving up money to become a member or looking into the diplomacy program and how this would also be beneficial to me. I believe this website gave me insight to new information and to consider different career opportunities not just in the United States but across the World within the field of child education. Below are a list of links within the website
