For Introduction to Early Childhood courses and courses in Early Childhood Methods and Early Childhood Curriculum. Designed for future teachers of children from birth to age 8, this text is organized around the twelve essential roles and responsibilities of effective early childhood educators as delineated by the NAEYC Guidelines for Preparation of Early Childhood Professionals (2000). Its innovative coverage focuses on helping students fulfill these roles in a caring, competent, knowledgeable manner, through case studies, verbatim comments, and numerous opportunities for reflection. Written by award-winning teachers, Exploring Your Role bolsters students' confidence in their ability as early childhood professionals and encourages a life-long interest in caring for and serving young children, in whatever setting they teach.
