I just troubled someone who I don’t know to help me with my primary research for my FYP. Posted list of open questions in one of her post’s comment lists, so that she can help me to formally post it in her blog, http://mumsgather.blogspot.com/

   

Here are some open questions that I posted in the link above. Anyway, this is not a formal questionnaire nor interview, but more towards an open discussion to get more real and accurate information from the related parties.

      

In any case, for those who are interested in preschool-related stuff might be able to share in this open discussion. =) Here we go…

   

1. Do childcare and preschool sound different for parents?

    

2. Will parents choose childcare instead of preschool, or vice versa, by knowing that preschools are more educational services provider, while childcares are more custodial and most of the time offer full-time services that would benefit the working parents?

      

Especially for Question 3 and 4 please sort out the options provided, from the most important to the least. The inclusion of some additional points with justifications will be greatly appreciated.

   

3. What are the requirements that can make up a quality preschool?

- Well-managed curriculum

- Facilities (e.g. Libarary, playground, teaching materials)

- Quality educators

- Learning environment

- Others ___________

    

4. How would parents define "quality educators"?

- A degree holder

- Training certified person

- Patience in delaing with the children (Behavior and attitude)

- Others ___________________

   

5. Would you, as parents, allow your children to be exposed to technology in their preschool age (3 to 5 years old) as supportive tools in their learning process? Such as: computer interactive game, letters introduction with the use of computers, access to internet, etc. (Any examples of any kinds of technoology that have helped your children to learn might be useful information to be shared)

    

6. Finally, any opinions to point out and expectations to be expected from a preschool, please do clarify it further. Thus, it will help in the analyses and solutions finding for a better development of early childhood education.

    

In any case, if anyone who read this post happen to have any relatives or frens interested in preschool-related issues, would be better if they have children who are in their preschool age, please help me to direct them and give opinion on this post. Thank you =)

P.S Beforehand, I would like to thank MG for her kindness and help. =)
