CHC50113 Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care

In your own time, please complete all of the activities listed below.

In this assessment, you will engage in reflective practice on your performance as an early childhood educator. You will then use the information you have gained in in your reflections to create a personal development plan.
 

To do this, you need to:

1. Engage in two-way feedback about your practice with two (2) of your peers. The two peers could be a combination of your trainer, a supervisor, another learner or another educator you have worked with in the space. The feedback should be focused on:

· Identifying areas for support

· Future areas for development

· Areas of interest (e.g. sustainability practices)

· Your strengths and areas for improvement.

NOTE: Ensure you document the discussions you have (including names, dates and times) and the feedback you receive as you will need to submit these as evidence.
 

2. Capture all of the information/data from the reflective activities outlined above to write a reflective report of around 500 words. Your report must contain:

· a) Summary of feedback: Provide a summary of the feedback received.

· b) Strengths and improvement areas: Outline your strengths, and areas in which you need to improve.

· c) Significant achievements: Summarise the highlights and significant achievements of your work practices over the duration of your study for the Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care.
