Reflecting on Communication in Early Childhood Field

To my EDU 6165 family:

As I write this blog entry, I am taken back to my first day of this degree and the fears that were built up inside about meeting others online. I can remember the queasy stomach and the doubts that were racing through my mind but I'm glad that I went forward with this challenge because it has yielded so many personal growth opportunities. I have never in my life had so many wonderful experiences meeting and networking with so many individuals near and far from different areas of the early childhood field. Many have served as role models, inspirational mentors and extended family through discussion board post and blog entries.....making this degree all the more meaningful to me. Time does not permit me to thank each of you individually but know that each person that has shown kindness and challenged me to think outside my comfort zone will never be forgotten. I pray that each of you has success with completing your degree and all that life has to offer you, hopefully one day soon our paths will meet again.

Sincerely,

TaShunda Pollard-Chapman

  2. Reading your blogs and discussion boards have helped me not only connect with others in the field but someone in my home state. I look forward to see you all at graduation! Tashana is absolutely right, we are almost done!

  3. Tashunda,

    I think it was wonderful collaborating with you through our long journey here at Walden. I think we all shared similar fears when we first started our journey. Thanks for sharing all your thoughts and insights. I wish you good luck and success on your future journey.
