I choose to search European Early Childhood Education
Research Association (EECERA) http://www.eecera.org/
I also viewed Early Childhood Australia, http://www.earlychildhoodaustralia.org.au/
Searching through the European Early Childhood Education
Research Association (EECERRA)
website, it took me to the Eric database, which is also a database that is used
in the United States. Some of the descriptors are child development, cross
cultural studies, cultural differences, day care, early childhood education and
intervention, financial support and others. Research Methodology is also a
descriptor.
Research topics:
a. The beliefs behind the teacher that
influences their ICT Practices.
b.
Examining the sustainability of an evidence-based pre-school curriculum:
The REDI Program
c.
“I Don’t Really see Where Their Going With It”: Communicating Purpose
and Rationale to the First Year Students.
d. Speaking up about Advocacy: Findings
from a partnership research project.
e.
Enhancing quality learning through Experience of Research-Based Learning;
Implications of Academic Development.
It wasn’t really surprising to see that education and our
youth are a concern all over the world. The even have articles about advocacy
for young children. I was somewhat surprised about Eric database being the
search engine to generate the articles. Even
though I was surprised about the database, it was a good choice because it
tells you whether the articles are peer reviewed or journal.
