TMA 07 
A plan of Parts 2 and 3 of my EMA
For this assignment I can confirm I have adhered to the E105 ethical guidelines by using information gained from my own setting. Parents of children whom I have observed as part of my studies have given written permission, and are aware they may withdraw this consent at any time. Parents, colleagues and other professionals acknowledge they will not be identified at any time during this assignment.
Self-Assessment Profile
I am now aware of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.
My knowledge in learning theories have improved, I had no knowledge prior to enrolling on E105.
I am now more confident to make changes within the setting, and to discuss the reasons why the changes are necessary to improve practice.
I now think about the reasons why I am doing what I plan to do, especially when observing children. This has majorly improved my time management.
A general reflection using Self-Assessment Profile B
Children now have more freedom to choose activities that I previously would have considered too risky.
I have disseminated my new skills and knowledge to staff to enable us a setting to improve practice. I am more aware of theories of learning, and plan activities with an end result in mind.
I have personally completed several observations using a variety of methods rather than consistently using the same method.
I now consider children’s next steps more in depth. This has helped with planning overall for the setting.
I now think about why I am doing things before actually doing them, I also look at what I say I do and what I actually do.
The setting safeguarding policy has been re-written since analysing documents in E105.
I have reflected on my leadership skills and make a conscious effort not to take over.
My confidence using the computer has increased since studying E105. I am now confident to add to online discussion forums.
