ECE-201 PHI/SOC FND EARLY CHILDHOOD EDU
Philosophical and Sociological Foundations of Early Childhood Education is designed for the pre-service teacher beginning curriculum development to examine developmental milestones in relationship to the physical, social, emotional, and cognitive growth and development of young children. While observing play-based theory in practice in a variety of early-childhood settings, students will interview experienced teachers, discuss the importance of integrated learning experiences and design a developmentally-appropriate learning environment. Community resources will be identified and assessment in relation to the development of the whole child will be explored. Field experience required. Prerequisites or corequisites: EDU 160 and EDU 221. Fall course only.
