ECED-305 Educational Psychology for Early Learners

This course examines a broad understanding of early childhood development through the study of major concepts, theories, and processes related to the cognitive, linguistic, social, emotional, physical, and moral development of children ages birth through eight years. Emphasis is made regarding development during the earliest years, particularly brain development that results in learned speech, gross and fine motor movements, basic hygiene, and cognitive reasoning. In addition, program candidates study strategies to create instruction that is responsive to early learners' differences and promotes cultural responsiveness with all stakeholders associated with young children.
