Instead of one-sided lectures by instructors, we emphasize content that can be applied to "tomorrow's childcare" by incorporating actual cases and case studies from childcare settings, as well as group work. We have received many comments from participants, such as: "The content was immediately applicable in the field." "It gave me an opportunity to reflect on my childcare practices." "Exchanging opinions with teachers from other facilities was helpful."
