Research on Home sickness of college students
Homesickness refers to distress from leaving home and being in an unfamiliar environment. A study examined the impact of homesickness on university student well-being through questionnaires. The results found that the most common symptoms students feel are lack of motivation to study unlike in school, craving to go home, and feeling lonely. A majority of students are aware of and experience homesickness, with girls being more affected than boys. To overcome loneliness, students find activities like sports, music and movies helpful. The study recommends conducting awareness programs before classes and introducing counselors to prevent homesickness.

Jacobs EHDI Poster Final
An online questionnaire was distributed to parents of children with hearing loss receiving early intervention services. It aimed to understand parent perceptions of early interventionist support for developing parental self-efficacy. The results from 16 parents were compared to one early interventionist's responses. Key findings were:
1) Parents rated increasing their confidence in managing their child's hearing devices as the most important role for interventionists, whereas the interventionist rated this lower.
2) Research shows developing parental self-efficacy is important for improving language outcomes, yet parents may not understand this relationship.
3) The questionnaire revealed discrepancies between what parents and interventionists viewed as priorities, indicating a need for improved understanding and communication.

Forum 8:
When we take good look at the families around us today it's clear they are diverse. There's an increase in single-parent, gay and lesbian, grandparent, blended family, and nontraditional households. It's clear that the family plays a huge role in a child's development. That being said, think about your childhood and your family. Who and what were you surrounded by, impacted by?
Now that you’ve got a better understanding of child development, please read [
Developmental Assets
] . Count the number of "Assets" you experienced as a child (note that some assets are related to the child's internal attitudes and behaviors and others assets are related to external elements of the child's world).

This document summarizes research on the benefits of outdoor play and learning environments for young children. It finds that children today spend less time playing outdoors and more time engaged with screens. This lack of outdoor time is linked to issues like obesity, attention problems, and poor physical and mental health. The document then outlines North Carolina's efforts to enhance early childhood outdoor learning environments and professional development through the North Carolina Outdoor Learning Environments Alliance. It shares the Alliance's goals of improving outdoor spaces and teachers' understanding of the importance of outdoor time.

We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.Ketone bodies and metabolism-biochemistry

- Introduction to the child and family: Jack is five-years old boy with Down Syndrome and only one child in his family. He has just started in my room where I am working as an ECE at kindergarten section. He has very little speech which sometimes makes him frustrated and triggers tantrums. His parents informed us that Jack seems very outgoing and friendly. Previous school teacher informed to Jack’s parents that Jack has speech and behavioral issue; because duringoutdoor play, sometime he lashes out at other children. Jack’s family is new to the Toronto area and asks me advice about services.
