Early Childhood Education

This course is designed to provide an introduction to the field of child development and psychology as well as an insight into the policies and practices of early childhood education providers. The course focuses on the early years (from birth to age 6) and utilizes resources produced at the state level (e.g First 5) and nationally (e.g MyPlate) including state regulations of child care facilities. You will engage with the content in a practical way by creating and demonstrating activities, lessons, storytelling, and other related tasks.
