Code of Ethics...



DEC CODE OF ETHICS


  • ·         We shall demonstrate the highest standards of personal integrity, truthfulness, and honesty in all our professional activities in order to inspire the trust and confidence of the children and families and of those with whom we work.


NAEYC CODE OF ETHICAL CONDUCT

  • ·         To be familiar with the knowledge base of early childhood care and education and to stay informed through continuing   and training.



  • ·         To appreciate the vulnerability of children and their dependence on adults.


            The three ideals contained in the NAEYC and DEC codes of ethics that I chose are meaningful to me because without fulfilling these standards children lose out on the best chance of developing to their full potential. We must stay current and up to date on our teachings and information because the world is constantly evolving and we need to be able to give our children the skills they need to operate and cope with what’s going on in today’s society. These ideals play a significant role in my professional life because working with children is what I am currently doing and I want to give every child that I come in contact with a chance at a successful life. I am able to use these standards and live by them when working with both children and their families. I can also take these ideals and share them with my coworkers and create a better work environment.

  2. I totally agree, if we do not keep in touch with current issues affecting children and their families in our profession who will!

  3. I love the DEC Code you picked. I agree that we need to display honestly to our students. Some teachers are the only role model their students have!

  4. Hi Alacia,

    It was a pleasure meeting you in our Foundation of Early Childhood Class. Your blog was very informal and engaging, I learn a lot of information that was very useful. I believe your background in the early childhood field is strong, and this will be beneficial to many children. Thanks for sharing with our colleagues.
