Teaching Philosophy: I train teachers of young children with methods consistent with how early childhood professionals want to teach the children in their classrooms. This is achieved by modeling, active learning experiences, reflecting, analyzing and evaluating child development theory in the college classroom and early childhood classroom. Students are expected to participate in class discussions and in an early childhood setting to practice strategies with young children and move through the teacher developmental stages.
Greeting to Students: I look forward to helping you achieve your educational goals and seeing you become a teacher of young children or becoming an early childhood professional who works with families.
Statement of Evaluation methods: CDEC courses will have at least three exams, a final exam; a course project(s); observation/field experience; and class participation grades (with the exception of CDEC 2384: Co-Op Education).
