Construc Early Child Ed&Fl Exp

Catalog description

This course has as its focus the history, philosophy, theories, and research which underlie early childhood education. From this base the student participates in the construction of knowledge and meaning through interviews with community and family members as well as observations in early childhood child care and school settings. Assignments, lectures, class discussion, activities, interviews, and observations are designed to enhance knowledge and skills needed to integrate philosophy and theory with practice.
