What are proxy settings?
Proxy settings are configurations that allow a device to connect to the internet through a proxy server instead of directly connecting to websites. This can help improve security, privacy, and network performance by acting as an intermediary between the device and the internet. Proxy settings can be manually configured on devices to route internet traffic through a specific proxy server, which can also be used to bypass geo-restrictions or access blocked websites.

Are there better settings?
The concept of "better" settings is subjective and depends on individual preferences and needs. Some people may prefer urban settings with access to amenities and cultural activities, while others may prefer rural settings with natural beauty and tranquility. It ultimately comes down to what each person values and desires in their living environment. It's important to consider factors such as cost of living, job opportunities, access to healthcare and education, and overall quality of life when determining the "better" setting for oneself.

The book is about weaving theory and practice: theorizing development and learning as reflected in assessment practice.The author also argues that unless we find ways to assess complex outcomes in early childhood they will be excluded from the teaching and the learning.Simple and low level outcomes and goals will take their place.The theoretical ideas and arguments are illustrated throughout by transcripts and stories of children in a range of early childhood settings.At every turn in the journey it asks: How is this reflected in a real life context?It documents the voices of children, practitioners and parents as the learning story develops.
