The benefits of early childhood education
You have been approached by a member of the community health centre to participate in a one-day information forum that is being held for parents with young children in the local community. The community is in a low socio-economic area where there is high unemployment, higher than average domestic violence and a high population of new immigrants. The local hospital has also reported a higher-than-average presentation to emergency for childhood accidents (in the home) of children under five years.
The day is designed to showcase the range of support services available in the community for parents with young children. You have been asked to prepare an A4 size poster and a PowerPoint presentation on the benefits of early childhood education. The PowerPoint will run intermittently throughout the day on a large screen.
Questions:
1. Using the demographic information about the target audience provided, list three things you would need to consider when preparing this information. Need Assignment Help?
2. Prepare your PowerPoint presentation/handout on the benefits of early childhood education.
