| その他の書誌記述: | Early childhood education is crucial for children’s cognitive, emotional, and social development. It has a long-term impact because the first years of life are a period of extensive growth and evolution, in part because of the many changes that occur in the brain. Evidence demonstrates that high quality educational programs are those that take advantage of the potential of early childhood to develop fundamental skills for lifelong learning. Therefore, investing in high quality early childhood education and care programs should be part of the foundation for strengthening human development policies and programs. Having access to quality educational opportunities during childhood contributes to improving social equity and closing inequality gaps, especially for the most disadvantaged children. In this study, early childhood education is defined as the stages, levels or programs of formal and non-formal education offered to children from birth to the time of enrolment in the first grade of primary school. A considerable amount of research has been conducted on the status of international early childhood education and best practices with recommendations that enrich decision making. However, in Central America and the Dominican Republic there is a lack of research that provides a regional overview of the topic and evidence to inform decision making in politics – hence the importance of this work. |
