This chapter looks at the systems approach in addressing the dilemma of investing in neonatal health in resource constraints environment. Is investing in neonatal care the key to attaining sustainable development goals? Is it just or even just to invest in Neonatal care in the midst of competing interests? It applies causal loop diagrams as part of systems dynamics approach in seeking to identify the intended and intended consequences of investing in Neonatal Health. A look into countries have done well in Neonatal health and their investment early childhood education is done in order to give insight into the relationship between the investments.

The benefits of early childhood development (ECD) programmes are strongly supported by evidence of reduced school dropout and repetition rates. However, the literature on ECD is primarily grounded in research based in the United States (US); in the light of this gap in the literature, this paper provides a comparative overview of ECD policy and practice from outside of the US, namely in South Africa and Turkey. As a theoretical framework the paper has followed the World Bank’s Systems Approach for Better Education Results (SABER)-ECD Analytical Framework. Findings indicate that both countries have established an enabling policy environment for ECD but implementation and the setting of and compliance to standards for quality is still emerging, in spite of massive strides made in this field during the past fifteen years.

This chapter examines trends in early childhood development (ECD) programmes in Latin America and their relevance to the achievement of Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) in the region. It begins with a theoretical background on ECD policies, including child protection policies, the ‘ecological’ approach to ECD programmes, how such programmes seek to break the intergenerational cycle of poverty, and their emphasis on the ‘vital cycle’ approach. It then considers some conditioning factors for child development before turning to the monitoring and tracking system of Chile Crece Contigo (ChCC), an early childhood development programme in Chile. It also discusses parenting stimulation as a component of ECD programmes in Jamaica.

This article, which investigates the relationship between music and language in development and learning during early childhood, does so by considering the potentials and inborn abilities in early childhood, the environmental influences, and the interactions between music and language development in children. Finally, it discusses implications for education, suggesting an integrated approach to music and language learning.

The Relationship

La relación entre significación y verdad ha sido, para algunas tradiciones, una marca definitoria del hecho semiótico. Este planteo vale tanto para abordajes lógico-epistémicos, atentos especialmente a la noción de referencia, como para modelizaciones desde la noción de lengua saussureana, concentradas en el mecanismo sígnico (respectivamente, referencialistas y significacionistas). Junto con ello, los dos tipos de abordaje, el primero trabajando desde la proposición, el segundo desde las oposiciones del nivel significante, conciben esencialmente la semiosis desde la matriz lingüística, y ambos convergen finalmente en pensar la verdad como un problema de coherencia interna. Se analizan ambas tradiciones, mostrando sus puntos de afinidad y divergencia, y con apoyo en la psicología del desarrollo de la infancia temprana se objeta que el nexo entre procesos de semiosis y de cognición puede entenderse como originario. En consecuencia, se discute que la semiótica como disciplina deba plantearse límites en términos veritativos o epistémicos. Abstract: The relationship between meaning and truth has been, for some traditions, a defining mark of the semiotic fact. This is valid both for logical-epistemic approaches, paying special attention to the notion of reference, and for modelizations based on Saussure's notion of langue, centered on the signification mechanism (respectively, referentialists and significationists). Together with this, the two types of approach, the first working from the proposition, the second from the oppositions of the signifying level, essentially conceive the semiosis from the linguistic matrix, and both finally converge in thinking the truth as a problem of internal coherence. Both traditions are analyzed, showing their points of affinity and divergence, and with support in the psychology of early childhood development it is objected that the nexus between semiotic processes and cognition can be understood as original. Consequently, it is discussed that semiotics as a discipline should be delimited by truth or epistemic terms.
