Curriculum Development
Curriculum development is ongoing. All of my syllabi, rubrics, instructional materials, handouts, and textbooks are reviewed at the close of each term. With input from students and other faculty, I assess what was beneficial to student learning and what needs change. Revisions, additions, and improvements are made to course content, learning opportunities, and assessments.
Course Revisions & Extensions
I revised and expanded the following:
- ECD 102 Growth and Development course outline and key assessment
- ECD 105 Guidance and Classroom Management textbook, added new assignment, streamlined course
- ECD 252 Diversity Issues in Early Care and Education expanded course assignments to include a Community Panel on Diversity and evaluation of retail establishments for bias
- Created curriculum notebooks for adjuncts and mentored adjuncts teaching ECD 101, 102, 105, 106, 135, 203 and 252
Hybrid Development
I am creating a hybrid course for ECD 252 Diversity Issues in Early Care and Education.
NAEYC
I revised all my course syllabi to include NAEYC standards and supportive skills in student learning outcomes and key assessment rubrics.
