Professional Hopes and Goals

As I look back over the past eight weeks and begin to think about working with children and families who come from very different and diverse backgrounds I hope that I can offer an environment that has trusting relationships, love, compassion,patience, respect, and consideration for all children and families that I come in contact with. This course has really touched my heart in so many ways,  I hope that I am able to take what I have learned from this course and help others who have struggled with diversity, culture, inequities and use the knowledge to help them understand about similarities and differences. 

A goal of mines when it come to to issues of diversity, equity, and social justice is to see anti-bias education for children, parents and all education people who deal directly with children and families. I think that if better understanding of culture and diversity was to happen, better communication will transpire between everyone.

I would like to thank all my colleagues because I have learned something from everyone. I enjoyed reading the discussion, blogs and learning about how others have dealt with situations similar to me, it made this experience some what easier.
