The Issues of Quality and Professional Growth:
Holistic (Sustainable Development)
After exploring the website UNESCO”s “Early
Childhood Care and Education website, I explored the link that discussed the
issues of quality. The article used the
term “holistic development” This subject/issue is what I am most interested in
exploring “the development of the whole person, learning from the environment. The article’s information regarding “Quality” states
to have quality childcare, “Early childhood care and programs should focus
mainly on the holistic development of the whole child and continue throughout
the child school years”. In addition,
more so the focus should be on the children from disadvantage backgrounds. A positive holistic development promotes all
of the developmental domains for school readiness. After exploring more, I studied information concerning
the holistic development of children living in Bangkok. The article focused on educating teachers of
Bangkok on the concept of sustainable development. The ideal of a holistic sustainable
development originated from the worldview that our behaviors have a lot to do
with actions and response to one another; recognizing one’s self, wishes, and
desires. Furthermore, in order for teachers to foster sustainable development
in children they must teach children self-learning, self-awareness, and
concerns of being part of Mother Earth.
