Introduction Our Way to Sincerity: Affirming Civility and Tolerance in Our Daily Work Janet Gonzalez-Mena writing the intro. Our profession challenges us with diverse human temperaments, cultures, and situations that hinge on the expression of sincerity and authenticity. The intent of this conversation is to consider the appropriate next steps, based on healthy individual attitudes that lead to dynamic social and emotional relationships. Let's learn to cultivate trust and possibilities. Intentionality for the Well-Intended Debra R. Sullivan writing the intro. Intentionality is the power of minds to be about, to represent, or to stand for, things, properties and states of affairs. We examine intent and having the mind and will focused on a specific purpose, intention and what one has in mind to do or bring about, and good intention that can result in a negative outcome. Technology: Reflecting On Resistance and Habits on the Way to Dynamic Change Debra R. Sullivan writing the intro. A discussion on what technology is doing to us instead of doing for us. This includes a reflection on the impact of technology on personal and professional growth and its implication on social/emotional development; an analysis of the uses and abuses of technology on daily life, specifically on future leadership development; a discussion on how technology can transform teacher and staff preparation; and ideas on how to control the information clutter and install selective and meaningful uses. Social/Emotional Competence: Are You Smarter Than A 2-Year-Old? Janet Gonzalez-Mena writing the intro. We need good emotional health to learn and to learn how to learn. This is an opportunity for you to discuss the three main models of Emotional Intelligence, reflect on the impact and influence emotions have had on you, learn what every 2-year-old knows about emotions, and develop strategies to increase your EI. Creating the Village: Building Relationships That Support Children Debra R. Sullivan writing the intro. It takes a village to raise a child, but what does it take to create a village? Every grown-up has a valued, understood role in the education, health, welfare, growth, and development of the children who live there. Creating the village in early childhood care and education happens when you create relationships, interactions, and activities that turn parents, teachers, and the community into a team that is effective and efficient at meeting the needs of the children and families they serve. C.A.T. Spells Success: Curriculum, Assessment, and Teaching for Quality Learning Environments Luis A. Hernandez writing the intro. What you teach matters, but how you teach it matters more. What you do counts, but how do you count what you do? Learning environments influence children's success, but how do your values influence the learning environment? Let's focus on the intersection of curriculum, assessment, and learning and strategies for making sure you're accomplishing what you set out to do. Reflecting on our Bumps in the Road Holly Elissa Bruno writing the intro. Michael Jordan, reflecting on his career, observed: "I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. Twenty-six times I've been trusted to take the game's winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life and that is why I succeed." When children stumble, have difficulty learning, or can't make friends easily, we support them. We teach children how to learn from their mistakes. Why are we, then, so hard on ourselves for making mistakes? Imagine if we could learn from the bumps in our road, let go and move on? From the Universal to the Uniform: Considering Cultural and Diversity Standards Across Our Personal and Professional Connections Luis A. Hernandez writing the intro. Playing for Keeps Holly Elissa Bruno writing the intro. Power: Teaching What We (un)Learn About Sharing and Withholding Power Holly Elissa Bruno writing the intro. We have all been schooled in the unwritten rules of dominance and subordinance in organizations. Here, we identify what we need to unlearn about traditional power dynamics, and envision ways to share power with those different from us and across differences. Together, we will create strategies on how to lead the way to equitable learning communities for all. Tomorrow's Children Today: A Self-Assessment Approach To Multicultural Readiness Janet Gonzalez-Mena writing the intro. A code of ethical conduct holds us all to the standard of mutual respect and empowerment. We seek through anti-bias curricula to create respectful, open environments where children are empowered to become their freest and best. Yet, we adults often experience or witness the disempowerment of those who are "different" because of race, gender, ethnicity, orientation, class, belief system, ability, and originality. This discussion is about naming the dynamics of power that we learned, visioning the dynamics of truly shared power, and creating strategies together on how to lead the way to equitable learning communities for all. The Great Imposter: Unmasking the Burden of Self Doubts in Our Professional Lives Luis A. Hernandez writing the intro. Most teachers and professionals in early childhood are competent people who can have moments of doubts as to their skills and competence. The discussion will affirm that while we may have certain weaknesses, it is imperative that improvement and constant learning be part of a professional process. It is imperative to focus on strengths, claim credit for small and big success stories, recognized tasks that are accomplished, and reflection on positive engagement and relationships.
