SHARING WEB RESOURCES.

 
I explored UNESCO link- http://www. UNESCO.org. There are links to information on culture, natural sciences,social and human sciences,communication and information, media services,and education(Early childhood ,secondary education,higher education ,inclusive education ,HIV &AIDS education, languages in education,science & technology).On the site ,I came across Inclusive Education. The Inclusive education is seen as the right of all children and as a part of quality education that meets basic learning needs and enriches lives. It focuses directly on vulnerable and marginalized groups that seeks to develop the full potential of every individual. The main goal of inclusive quality education is to end all forms of prejudice and foster social interaction The .’Vulnerable’ and ‘marginalised’ groups is made up of many different individuals deprived of their right to education.
The new information that I read about is called “The Language in Education.UNESCO encourages multi -languages in education because it has been proven to have positive impact on learning and learning outcomes.
There is information on access . For example, they have an article on ” Access, Public Investment, and Equity in ECCE” and this relate to what we are discussing this week.The site is very beneficial for educators. It talks about Quality in early childhood,investment and governance.
