RESEARCH QUESTIONS
Construct our research question for this project - what do we want to know?
* In what ways does a shift in a teacher's image of the child affect their effectiveness?
* How do family members, caregivers, early childhood teachers think about developmental cascades as an explanation of their child's experience?
* What are some obstacles and hindrances for information about children from flowing more freely across disciplines, particularly into Early Childhood Teacher Education?
