To my colleagues, it is amazing how fast time has passed by and the course Communicating and Collaborating in the Early Childhood Field has reached its end. I am appreciative for the significant insights that all of you have shared and I am in awe of the vast amount of knowledge and experience the group holds and the fact that we were capable of sharing that knowledge and experience with each other.
During this course, I gained crucial information that would enhance my ability to become a proficient communicator. At this time, I have focused on that awareness and it has helped me to communicate more effectively with others both personally and professionally. I understand that the beliefs, opinions, feelings, languages, and cultural backgrounds of others are an important part of communication. I now know that if I utilize my diverse knowledge astutely, I can relate to others on a higher level. Additionally, I accept as true that different awareness and skills will enhance team efficiency and open new pathways for us to develop our concepts and viewpoints. Thus, being in cultural terms, it is a necessity to be responsive in today’s ever growing diverse population.
Wishing each of you success and the best of luck in everything that you do and touch. Wishing you enough! Jan
