Research that Benefits Children and Families—Uplifting Stories

If I possessed the means and the knowledge to conduct my research studies about any topic in early childhood education, I would choose behavioral disorders in children. I have always wondered why so children have this disorder while others don’t.  Year after year more research shows why children suffer from this and how parents can help their children. Some parents ignore the warnings early on because they don’t want to believe it or just feel as if their child will grow out of it. There would be so many positive contributions to this because parents would help their children early on and help them before they enter school.

Personal Research Journey

At first I didn't know which topic I wanted to research but after careful consideration I found something of my interest. I decided to research technology and learning as it relates to children in the early childhood field. I’m interested in this topic because technology is all around us and that’s what used most in today’s society. Children are using computers at very young age now and having a child who loves technology I wanted to research more about it. For my subtopic I chose the affects it has on children.
After starting my research chart I’m learning how to gather my thoughts and how to find articles for my research. I’m hoping that my colleagues will give me advice on my research process. Please feel free to email me or comment on my blog.
