For this Journal assignment, you will study the three documents that guide our Early Childhood
Education (ECE) and Child Studies (CHS) Degree Program: 1) Vision, 2) Mission, and 3)
Conceptual Framework. You will find them in the purple menu on the left side of the Blackboard
in all Child Studies courses.
After reading the documents, thoughtfully respond to the following four questions. Your
entry needs to be written in full sentences and be approximately 150 words (one
or two sentences for each question).
1. How do you benefit from pursuing your degree at an institution that has earned Higher
Education accreditation from the National Association for the Education of Young
Children (NAEYC)?
2. What does the Vision mean to you as a student in this degree program?
3. What does the Mission mean to you as a student in this degree program?
4. What does the Conceptual Framework mean to you as a student in this degree program?
