Details about this class

  • ECE 224 Develops awareness of cultural and ethnic issues as they relate to early childhood classrooms. Includes techniques for assessing, development and implementing multicultural, anti-bias curriculum.
  • Weekly attendance and active in-class participation are essential to creating a learning community.  If you are not in attendance, you miss many opportunities for learning.  As a result, if you miss a class, leave early, or arrive you may not receive participation points for that particular class meeting.  

  • We will use D2L/Brightspace as a digital platform for course materials and resources. From time to time, the instructor may post discussion questions on D2L/Brightspace.  All students are expected to participate in these discussions, and points will be awarded toward your participation credit for the week.

  • Students will be required to conduct off-campus research and interviews on community human services programs.

Technology

ECE224 is a hybrid course with weekly live Zoom meetings and online course materials and assignments. Students will need access to Zoom through a computer or phone interface with both microphone and camera. 

No show policy

Your instructor can mark you as a "no show" if you do not participate in your class during the first week. This will remove you from the class.
