CEDUC 4360 Working with Parents and Children in Integrated Early Childhood Settings
Taken concurrently with a practicum, this course is designed to be a synthesizing experience. It focuses on individual differences and how to create the environmental and curricular adaptations to meet them. It also considers differences in families, in parenting styles, and in culture as the basis for planning parent-teacher interactions around issues of curriculum, behavior management, and home-school continuity. In addition, it includes a variety of ways for gathering information about a child's development and for keeping track of a child's progress. Prerequisites: CEDUC 2351 and CPSYC 2401. This course is taken senior year, simultaneously with student teaching.
