My image of an ECE (a leaner's journal) by Chao Wen https://padlet.com/allywen2010_/3d6qsuswh83f83xi en-us 2025-02-15 15:00:41 UTC 2025-02-15 15:36:23 UTC hello@padlet.com Feb 15 Foreword allywen2010_ https://padlet.com/allywen2010_/3d6qsuswh83f83xi/wish/3329761299 Developing a personal philosophy as a new Early Childhood Educator (ECE) is a journey of self-discovery and reflection. It does not happen overnight but evolves through experience and continuous learning.

I want to develop my educational philosophy. My philosophy, which considers the overarching frameworks and standards that guide ECE practice, reflects my unique beliefs, values, and approaches to working with children.

It is a journey starting not today; however, I will document my thoughts and reflections from today.
