Proficiency project 1a

Many of you appear to be confused about this assignment. Let me clarify.
1. if it is hard, you are overthinking it.
2. this is a coupon
3. you are making a flyer
4. put on your center's name, make one up if you have to
5 address, make this up too if you need to 5, hours of operation
6. a line or two about why you have a good program
7. THEN OFFER A MONETARY INCENTIVE, SUCH AS A FREE WEEK, OR WAIVE THE ENROLLMENT FREE OR 100 DOLLARS OFF IF A FRIEND ENROLLS.
maybe add a picture or make the flyer pretty or unique.
Hope this helps.

Research Topic Proposal

As some of you have commented, the Research Topic has been left very wide open. This is because part of the educational process is learning how to make decisions, where to research in areas in which you are passionate and being able to move forward independently.
1. Choose an early education topic about which you are passionate.
2. put that idea in a sentence or two
3. put that in the dropbox marked for research topic proposal
4. I will take a look at it and help you narrow it down. for instance, if you said, infants and toddlers, I would ask about what specifically would you research about infants and toddlers. Language development, Secure attachment, etc.
5. once you have the okay,, you can begin to write your paper.

Time to get it going

Now you have your blogspot account. It is time to get those blogs rolling. The blog/journal assignments are located in your syllabus.

Be sure to put Journal (and the correct number) in the title box.

Journals should be at least one paragraph per question. Paragraph = 3-5 sentences.

add a picture to your blog at least once for an extra 5 points.

Let's get those journals rolling.

welcome, spring class of 2012

Wow, a new year that almost seems like science fiction come to life. I remember a day that society believed we would be driving hover cars by this date and eating food like the Jetson's. Many of you might be too  young to remember that cartoon. I will be adding you sometime on Tuesday, 1-24-12.

I hope you have fun in this class and learn lots of new things that you will find helpful.

Get to blogging.
