Description
In this course, students will explore the multiple meanings of ?child? and how those meanings inform and influence educational practices and teaching methods. Students will meet the child in context, assessing the sociocultural factors that mediate development and that influence and inform curriculum development and teaching pedagogy. Through class participation, readings, and personal reflections, students will critically analyze child development and mainstream educational practice and investigate how both assist and/or inhibit the learning process in children.
