Application: The Child As Role Maker in a Diverse World
Very early in life, humans begin the life-long process of
exploring different identities and ways to be in this world. In
whatever professional role in the early childhood field you will
find yourself, it will most likely include direct contact with
young children and opportunities to witness, in myriad
variations, this process of “role making.” Your responsibility is
to be mindful of whether children feel secure or insecure in this
world, powerful or powerless, safe or marginalized.
This assignment offers you the chance to study and evaluate the
extent to which your identities are intertwined with the
culture(s) in which you place yourself (or into which you were
placed) and with the response of people around you.
In preparation, first review Chapter 7, pp. 92–105 of the course
text,
The Developing Child in the 21st Century: A Global Perspective
on Child Development
and pp.56–60 of the course text,
Anti-Bias Education for Young Children and Ourselves.
Then consider the following:
What have the readings taught you about the ways in which
children try out various identities and explore role-related
issues? Focus your analysis especially on issues of power,
subjectivity, and responses to diversity. Be sure to reference the
resources in your response.
From the examples of children’s identities as street workers
and/or soldiers, what new insights did you glean with regard to
the relationship between diversity and social identities? Think
about the specific roles/identities you assumed when you were a
child. Why were these identities important to you? In what ways
did those around you respond? How were these responses
related to power and cultural inclusion/exclusion?
Which of these childhood roles/identities have you preserved
into your adulthood—and for what reason(s)?
In what ways have the readings this week affirmed, extended,
and/or modified what you learned so far about culture and
diversity?
For this assignment, write an essay in which you address all
four questions.
Assignment length: approximately 2 pages
Submit
this assignment by
Sunday
of this week.
