全美幼教协会全面推动早期教育工作者专业化的动因、举措及启示

The Motivations and Measures of NAEYC National Collaboration for the Early Childhood Educators’Professionalization and Its Enlightenments

在经过前期准备以后,全美幼教协会于近年发起了全面推动早期教育工作者专业化的行动。这既是应对早期教育工作者队伍建设无序分化的现实选择,又是积极促进早期教育工作者有序专业化的理性选择。该协会主要采取了三大举措来推动早期教育工作者的专业化:促进行业从业者达成推动早期教育工作者专业化的共识,持续修订专业立场声明和标准以提升专业化的能力基础,制订“进阶策略”以渐进式地促进专业化。这对于我国学前保教人员队伍建设带来了启示:以完善的专业标准促进专业能力的养成,强化学前保教人员专业化的专业能力基础;以系统的政策设计支持人员有序发展,完善学前保教人员专业化的制度体系;明确多方利益相关者参与学前保教人员队伍建设的权责边界,优化学前保教人员专业化的社会支持网络。

After the preliminary preparation,NAEYC launches the national collaboration for the early childhood education profession.The initiation of collaboration is not only a realistic choice to deal with the disordered differentiation of the early childhood educators,but also a rational choice to actively promote the orderly professionalization of early childhood educators.Specifically,NAEYC mainly adopts three measures to carry out the goal:promote consensus among the early childhood educators,continuously revise professional position statement and standards to improve the ability of professional foundation,develop the decision-cycles to promote the profession.It brings many enlightenments to us.First,improve professional standards to promote the professional ability.Secondly,support the orderly development of personnel with systematic policy design.Thirdly,define the power and responsibility boundaries of multi-stakeholder participation in the construction of preschool education personnel to optimize the professional social support network.
