  • Summary

    Early childhood education has become a prominent field focused on promoting the physical, social-emotional, and intellectual development in young children. Around the world, teacher educators seek ways for candidates to hone key pedagogical practices such as planning, assessment, and reflection inherent in inquiry-based instruction. Undergraduate research embedded in the training of future early childhood educators offers knowledge and skills in solving daily professional problems. Using action research, teacher candidates consult with community leaders, families of young children, and colleagues to implement evidence-based practices toward a common goal. The author shares examples and areas for undergraduate research in early childhood education.
