Evidence suggests that developing specific core capacities from childhood can support performance in school, work, and life.
These nine “core capacities” are cornerstones of life skills. We often overlook these capacities as innate basic skills, so they are underutilized in efforts to promote child well-being and development.
But by nurturing, expanding, and modelling these capacities, children can better understand and interact with the world around them, and realise their unique potential.

The essence of quality childcare…
when a teacher recognizes and accepts
where a child is
academically, socially and culturally
and teaches them through play
allowing them to engage in learning.
Quality Care Overview
What does QUALITY mean?
• How good or bad something is
• A characteristic or feature that someone or
something has
• Something that can be noticed as a part of a
person or thing
• A high level of value or excellence
Why is Quality Childcare
important?
What is Quality Childcare?
We will emphasize a high level of
value or excellence in maintaining
standards, best practices and
attitudes that support the
development of children in our care.
The state regulates quality based on the following aspect:
• Ratio: The number of children per adult in a home or classroom
• Group Size: The total number of children
• Health: Policies and practices around illness, immunization, nutrition,
cleanliness, and preventing the spread of germs
• Safety: Practices to make sure the environment is safe, both indoors
and outdoors. This includes practices around First Aid and Infant and
Child CPR training for staff, fire precautions, criminal background
checks
• Training, education and experience of the provider: Assures that
providers are knowledgeable in child development and other related
topics
Quality care is more than
just following regulations,
it is embracing the
individual, developmental, and academic
needs of children;
meanwhile respecting parents as their
primary educators.
Research has shown that building positive relationships with
children and their families, plus providing safe developmentally
appropriate learning environments produces long lasting
positive effects on children’s cognitive and social development.
This includes:
developmentally appropriate curriculum
knowledgeable and well-trained teachers
comprehensive services that support the health, nutrition and
social well-being, in an environment that respects and supports
diversity
Employing effective practices in the
following stages of quality care
are essential for
every early childhood teacher.
Stages of Development
Children grow and develop at different rates. While their
pathways through childhood differ, most pass a set of
predictable milestones along the way.
The information presented here offers a map that can
help you follow a child's journey.
The map divides the developmental milestones
into four areas:
Physical Development
From the start, babies want to explore their
world. As they grow, children's determination to
master movement, balance, and fine-motor skills
remains intense.
Social and Emotional
Social and emotional milestones are often harder to
pinpoint than signs of physical development. This area
emphasizes many skills that increase self-awareness
and self-regulation. Research shows that social skills
and emotional development (ref lected in the ability to
pay at ...
Why Early Childhood Education Important? | Enterprise WiredEnterprise Wired
Early Childhood Education is far more than simply babysitting. It's a carefully crafted environment designed to foster holistic development in children aged from birth to eight.
The information in these slides was shared by Amudha Mahendiran and Terry Evans, members of the Early Childhood team at The Source for Learning, Inc., during VAECE's 2017 Annual Conference in Hampton Roads, VA, on Saturday, April 1, 2017.
PRESENTATION OVERVIEW
Participants in this session learned about different methods to observe children and how to use their observations to assess a child’s progress and guide their curriculum.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
