The relationship between the amount of training and education of teachers of three to five-year-old children and attitudes and quality of the child care environment

Abstract

dc:description

The purpose of this study was to illuminate one dimension of child care quality by examining whether the teacher's attitudes and the quality of the child care environment are related to the amount of training and education of the teacher. Specifically, the intent was to examine how the training and education of teachers and caregivers of three to five year old children relate to their attitudes toward teaching in the classroom and children, and specific aspects of the quality of the child care environment.
