Early Childhood Reflective Practice 2 - ECHP222

In this unit students engage in active, careful and critical reflection as part of their commitment to teaching. A range of strategies that provide guidance on ways to support young children's learning is central to the unit. The content of the unit explores current theories of learning and investigates the concept of documenting children's learning as a way to record thoughtful, reflective observations that connect to planning. Sensitivity to children of culturally diverse backgrounds is a key component of the unit. Students practice these skills as they complete 20 compulsory days of professional experience in a prior-to-school early childhood setting.
