EDU-655 Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment in the ECE Setting I (3)

This course is the first of a two-course sequence with EDU-656 that focuses on theoretical models of learning that specifically address the Early Childhood Education setting. Throughout the course, candidates develop an understanding of the significance of applying research-informed, equitable and inclusive play-based instructional practices that advance social justice in both formal and informal ECE settings. Students learn teaching models and develop strategies and resources for inclusive interdisciplinary teaching, based on the assessment and analysis of young children’s learning across the curriculum for diverse young learners.
