Research Around the World

Early Childhood Australia

http://www.earlychildhoodaustralia.org.au/

One of the things I was most interested to see on this website was a link on the menu bar to the left of the screen that was entitled 'code of ethics'. I am familiar with the NAEYC  code of ethics and I have worked with that on a number of occasions in school and in my personal work at a child care center. I was pleased to see that in Early Childhood in Australia there is also a code of ethics that they stick to. Under another link entitled 'catalog', there were a lot of different subtopic options that I was able to explore. Most of them are also current trends in the United States. For the most part they are things I am familiar with and have worked my personally. A few of these include language and literacy, health and wellness, children's books and creative art among others. Another noteworthy thing I found on the website was a publication of a magazine called 'Every Child'. This was interesting to me because it was very similar to the publication that NAEYC has called Young Child .

  1. Hi Amy,
    I also enjoyed going through the catalogue and some of the samples of the magazine "Every Child". There are also several interesting researches to read.
    Thank you for sharing!

  2. Amy,
    I reviewed this site as well and found the same connections with that of NAEYC. I read over their code and found that many of the same beliefs are shared. I found it heartwarming to know even though thousands of miles separate us, we all hold similar beliefs in how to care for and educate children.
