This seminar provides a framework for the experienced practitioner to study the process of physical, cognitive, social, and emotional development of children, birth through age eight, both in theory and in its implications for the context of the early childhood classroom. Stu-dents integrate their understanding of development in various domains into working knowledge of young children and developmentally appropriate practices in their own centers. Emphasis is placed on the role of culture and relationships in this process. Students are expected to assimilate and document understandings taken from course readings and assignments into their daily Head Start practice. They are supported in the field component of the course by regular site visits from program faculty.
Course descriptions are stored in OASIS and are maintained by the Associate Dean for each School.
