The purpose of this course is to lay the foundation for understanding the elements of early childhood education (ECE). During this course, students will study five key elements of the care of young children: the history and current issues of early childhood education, types of programs within ECE, knowledge of the young child, the roles and responsibilities of the teacher, and the dynamics of environment and curriculum. Students will be introduced to anti-bias curriculum, the Project Approach, and basic elements for working with English language learners (ELLs). Students will be active learners through assigned coursework and reflective practitioners through observation and activity with young children in the accompanying field experience. For traditional students, concurrent enrollment required in ED 232 , ED 209 , ED 239 , and ED 240 as part of Sophomore Block.
