Early Childhood Education: Starting Off Right

Debates

Date: Wed November 14, 2012

Schedule: 10.45 - 12.15 (UTC+3h)

Location: Auditorium 1

Moderated by: Dr. Bruno della CHIESA


A growing body of research has found that high-quality early childhood education can improve long-term learning ability. While education for the youngest learners is far from universal, a number of effective holistic programs are grounded in local contexts. Can these be replicated elsewhere in order to extend their benefits to other geographical regions and cultures?

From my experience as a teacher for two different international systems, the students who have a solid background from early childhood are more accurate in thinking , discussing ideas, and working.
