2022 Excel Silver Award Winner. Together, the voices of
early childhood educators, scholars, and professionals can sound the
call to
advance the profession toward more equitable educational experiences,
systems,
and practices for all children. This book showcases many of these
voices from across the field
of early childhood education and invites you to think about and discuss
ways
you can add your own voice to that call.
Expanding on recommendations from
NAEYC's "Advancing Equity in Early Childhood Education" position
statement, the
contributors to this invaluable resource navigate difficult and complex
topics
and offer guidance on how to apply more equitable pedagogical
practices.
Grounded in theoretical frameworks and current research, the chapters
look at
both the history of inequity in the profession and what the future of
education
can mean for all children.
