Early Childhood Education
Early Childhood Education is a one- or two-year program offered to junior and senior students. The program provides preparation and a practicum for students who are interested in teaching children, such as preschool teachers, teacher’s aides, elementary teachers and social workers. Daily activities in the classroom may include videos, readings, and projects to teach children. Students will work on a weekly basis with the children in the laboratory preschool and will observe their behaviors on a regular basis. The practicum includes preschool, kindergarten, elementary grades and learning disabilities. Each student will develop a portfolio and complete a six-week work-based learning experience. Second year students will receive additional training from a work-based learning program.  Dual Credits:  9-12 SVCC (ECE 110 – 3-6, ECE 114 – 3, ECE115-3)
