Blog Assignment: Research that Benefits Children and
Families—Uplifting Stories
After working in the field of early childhood over twenty plus
years, I had a chance to experience to working with families who have children
with special needs. For example, down syndrome, William syndrome and children
with mental challenges. I have come to realized that research plays a
significant part when it comes to the field of child development. As the early
childhood carry on and progress, experts
essential be situated and able to get
the necessary information and be able to seek verified involvement ways and
means on behalf of the different children.
As a state preschool teacher, I found involve with early intervention programs;
in the early childhood. This expert make known to I myself in the direction of quite
a lot of procedures. I noticed that the researcher support children development
growth and I found out through the study. With Williams’s syndrome children and
during my time spent with working with these diverse children and their families
has significant impact on families. I have discovered that DIR-Floor time has
been showed in more than a few out of countries and the impact it has on a
child emotionally. That why I feel that research has a vital part in the field
of early childhood and is very useful to educators to be able to stay current
and up – dated to help the children. . With a therapy such as this, it is
essential that research continues in order to share the findings of either the
success or challengers of the therapy so that more families will be able to
utilize it.

Tamika,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your insight. I can imagine that doing research for children who have special needs could benefit them and children in the future who have special needs. The results of this research could suggest new strategies and therapy to provide children the opportunity to be successful in whatever environment they are in. If we did not have research focusing on children with special needs, where would they be? They would probably be highly misunderstood, in special classes that are segregated from their peers (such as they did when I went to school in the 1970's) and potentials that were not discovered.
