For this assignment I chose option 2:
Something I'm very passionate about is teaching young children how to read! With the means and the knowledge to conduct a study that positively impacts young children and their families I would complete a longitudinal study regarding the impact preschool has on early reading abilities. My focus would be on low socioeconomic status children and families. I would follow the participants and their reading ability growth from preschool through 3rd grade.
A study in the area of literacy and young children would positively impact young children and their families because it would provide data to support policies that fund preschool programs. Early childhood professionals and advocates could present the findings to decision-makers who enact policies in the field. Findings in this study could increase accessibility, equity, and quality in early programs for low socioeconomic status families and children.
