JULY 2022
Foundation for Child Development: Foundation News

Join us for a roundtable webinar addressing issues related to the preparation of early educators and the role of research in their practice. Faculty preparing early educators will join in conversation about how early care and education (ECE) implementation research could be helpful in the preparation and practice of early educators and leaders and how to foster collaboration between practitioners and researchers. This discussion will also highlight the utility and value of the Foundation's newly released resource, Getting it Right: The Conversation Guide for Preparing the Next Generation of ECE Practitioners. 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 publication and our 2021 Getting it Right: The Conversation Guide for Preparing the Next Generation of Implementation Researchers, which both provide insights into the value of implementation research in the study of ECE.

Attendees will have an opportunity to join the conversation and ask questions during a live Q&A session.

Getting it Right: The Conversation Guide for Preparing the Next Generation of ECE Practitioners 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.
