** Announcing Our New
Getting it Right Conversation Guide
------------------------------------------------------------

The Foundation for Child Development is pleased to announce the release of Getting it Right: The Conversation Guide for Preparing the Next Generation of ECE Practitioners ([link removed]) . This latest conversation guide serves as a companion piece to our 2020 Getting it Right: Using Implementation Research to Improve Outcomes in Early Care and Education ([link removed]) publication and Getting it Right: The Conversation Guide for Preparing the Next Generation of Implementation Researchers ([link removed]) , which both provide insights into the value of implementation research in the study of early care and education (ECE).

This guide aims to help faculty in institutions of higher education use the Getting it Right publication in the preparation of future ECE practitioners—early educators working directly with children; early education leaders administering programs; and those who support them (e.g., coaches) working in school, center-based, and home-based settings. As a resource, this guide supports higher education faculty to initiate and sustain conversations with students about effective ECE practices and policies, what still needs to be

learned, and how to deepen our understanding of young children’s development and learning. By understanding and participating in implementation research, practitioners can help shape research agendas in ways that help fill in the existing gaps in our knowledge, especially knowledge relevant to instructional practice.

Now is the moment for ECE practitioners, researchers, and policymakers to collaborate and identify the critical components of effective ECE programs and policies and engage in meaningful exploration of what works, for whom, and under what conditions.
