ECE 460 - Innovations in Curriculum for Young Children 4 credits Provides teachers with a philosophical foundation, a clear articulation of appropriate practices and principles for young children and connecting student observations with their own theoretical knowledge. Students bring critical thinking into the work with young children while examining all aspects of classroom life including children’s cultural identities, linking known and accepted early learning theories to developmentally appropriate curriculum development, utilizing a “whole-child” perspective to serve all learners. This robust course looks deeply at the development of children between the ages of 3 and 8 years and the role of the teacher as observer, documenter, curriculum designer, and advocate for children and families. Prerequisite(s): ECE 350 ; restricted to ECD majors and minors. Junior standing or above or instructor permission. Graded (A-F) only.
