NAEYC PDI 2013 Report

Marsha Chan, Mission College, Santa Clara, CA

I attended the NAEYC PDI 2013–National Association for the Education of Young ChildrenŐs Professional Development Institute–held in San Francisco June 2013

I presented a session Meeting the English Language Needs of Parents and Child Care Professionals with Julaine Rosner.

In addition, I attended many sessions, at which I took copious notes. I audio-recorded the sessions and did some editing of the sound files, such as increasing volume on questions from the audience. Any errors in note-taking should be attributed to me and not to the presenters. I share this information with all interested parties.
