Goosen For those of you who know me, you might believe I enjoy asking the hard questions, and I guess I would have to agree. I believe that asking hard questions lends itself to brainstorming and selecting potentially powerful solutions, moving groups one step closer toward their goal. In addition, I believe it is necessary to continue to ask hard questions even after the goal has been accomplished to successfully maintain excellence in our work. Let’s face it, the needs of children and their families, as well as the workforce that supports them, continues to change and evolve and therefore requires constant vigilance. Ours is always a work in progress and is not for the faint of heart. So you may ask, what is the hard question to ponder today? Here it is: “What is the difference between coordination, cooperation, and collaboration, and why is it important as an early childhood professional to understand the difference?” In retrospect, this is probably a series of hard questions but give me an inch… you get the point. Why is it important for early childhood professionals to understand the difference between coordination, cooperation, and collaboration? There is no easy answer. Early childhood professionals often find themselves working within a group (or groups) that erroneously define themselves as “collaborative”. Using the wrong term to describe the group doesn’t seem to be that important. However, groups that call themselves “collaborative partners” when in fact they are merely coordinating or cooperating often confuse and frustrate most, if not all, of their members. Understanding the difference between the words coordination, cooperation and collaboration is taxing because they have often been used interchangeably. Indeed, if you “Google” this question you will find that there have been many attempts to clarify these words (albeit vaguely), and many continue to seek better answers. After reviewing several on-line dictionaries, I found out why that may be so. All three of our “C” words include, “working together” in their primary definition. However, each word varies slightly on who is working together, and what they might be working on. Merriam-Webster Online (2009) further defined our “C” words as follows: 1. Coordination: the harmonious functioning of parts for effective results 2. Cooperation: to act together or in compliance for mutual benefit 3. Collaboration: a) to work together jointly, especially in an intellectual endeavor; b) cooperating with or willingly in assisting an enemy of one’s country, especially an occupying force. The first two definitions were probably no surprise; however, the definition of collaboration may have been a bit eye opening. Being the “pot stirrer” that I am, I would argue that this definition can and does apply to our work in early childhood, but I will get to that later. Before we go there, lets first take a closer look at coordination and cooperation, and discuss why most of our work may actually be falling within these two models of working together. As stated previously, Merriam-Webster Online defines coordination as the harmonious function of parts for effective results. Work that is coordinated involves more than one person, includes shared objectives, requires an understanding of personal roles and responsibilities, and is generally overseen by someone (e.g. coordinator). There is a general assumption that there

  • Myna Control Underway in Far North Queensland
    Myna Control Underway in Far North Queensland By Ron Moon, Cairns Men’s Shed Indian Myna control across Far North Queensland has gone through a number of iterations to be now firmly established under the umbrella of the Men’s Sheds across the region. The current program was borne out of a confluence of serendipitous events involving the Cairns Men’s Shed, the Cairns Rotary Club, Warren Entsch the federal Member for Leichhardt, and the Canberra Indian Myna Action Group (CIMAG). Research by Chris Tidemann on myna trapping in tropical Cairns had earlier concluded that trapping was ineffective: while Cairns had an extremely high density of mynas – up to 750 per sq km – the tropics have lots of insects to feed on and mynas appeared to avoid the traps. Separate to that, Warren Entsch had noticed, each time he came to Parliament in Canberra, the progressive drop in myna numbers as a consequence of the trapping program by Canberra Indian Myna Action Group members. When Mr Entsch visited the Cairns Men’s Club in May 2011, he suggested they build a few myna traps for a bit of additional income. Within a few weeks Ron Moon of the Men’s Shed had come up with a trap design. As it so happened a month or so later, Bill Handke from CIMAG was holidaying in Cairns and was invited to speak about the Canberra community myna trapping program to the Cairns Rotary Club – attended by Mr Entsch. As a result of that presentation, the Cairns Rotary Club promptly established a myna control group, and arranged for the Men’s Shed to provide traps.
