Mind in the Making (MITM) ©, created by the Families and Work Institute in New York, is designed for teachers of young children who work in either center or home-based settings.
MITM is a series of 12 Learning Modules that take 30 hours to cover and offer a comprehensive, science-based and practical approach to professional development for people who work with infants and young children in child care settings.
The MITM and materials focus on what is known from science about the central role of relationships in supporting all domains of child development and learning as well as, “understandings about teaching adults so that they learn to teach children in new ways” (Mind in the Making © Learning Modules Facilitator Guide, Version 03.01.2006).
