Getting to know internal contacts part 3

 week 7

I have yet to make any sort of contact with my international contacts. I check my email frequently to see if anyone has had an opportunity to make a connection therefore I will be reporting about the UNESCO’s “Early Childhood Care and Education” webpage (http://www.unesco.org/new/en/education/themes/strengthening-education-systems/early-childhood/).

There were various articles that aided to the descriptions of education across the world. Some that I took particular interest in were how to apply for regional diplomas in Latin America and Africa. Once accepted the program is conducted on a part-time basis, including a two-week intensive session in which participants’ attendance is required, as well as distance learning activities within a timeframe of 30 weeks. In order for us to advance as a whole we must seek ways to improve personally and professionally.

Another included source of information included a newsletter which is published three times a year, the IIEP Newsletter keeps readers informed of current trends in educational planning and IIEP activities. It allows them to update their planning skills and management techniques, but also to stay informed on major issues facing education systems. The IIEP Newsletter is produced in printed and electronic formats, and in four languages: English, French, Spanish and Russian.

Lastly, cultural diversity and the bond or mending information from place to place about the various native is rewarding because one can create partnerships and expand on knowledge acquired. The scale and diversity of mobile learning projects in the United Kingdom and Denmark indicate that sustained government investment is necessary to roll out large projects which effectively use mobile phones for learning. Secondary school teachers in Europe, beyond using mobile phones to enrich the delivery of education, have recently begun asking students to practice technical and critical thinking skills by designing their own mobile applications. Living with diversity, how to tackle racism and the importance of youth involvement were topics young people in the USA and Brazil raised with UNESCO’s Director-General and experts on January 18 at UNESCO Headquarters via a live video conference.
