  • The Early Childhood Video Library: a place to learn and grow.

    Each video in this series focuses on a different aspect of primary school improvement featuring teachers and administrators in the midwest. It is available for loan from the AEA Early Childhood Consultants, Community Colleges, Resource and Referral or the Iowa Department of Education. It is also available for purchase from NAEYC, a partner in this videography.

  • Knowledge is always a construction.

    The Iowa DE/AEA Early Childhood Network belief statement includes: "People are empowered through collaborative efforts." We have found our work together essential to professional development in a rapidly changing society. The learning process must be grounded in meaningful work, innovative and essential practices. We also need to take responsibility for our own learning through action research and encouraging human relationships.

    If you would like to become involved, please contact the early childhood consultant or specialist at your Area Education Agency or the Iowa Department of Education.
