- Description
- The Early Childhood Education degree familiarizes students with key issues, techniques, and concepts related to the contemporary practices of teaching young children. Students are introduced to innovative methods in designing the early learning environment and an inclusive curriculum. They have opportunities to develop and examine their role as teachers in creating liberated and democratic places of learning through care and relationship building with children. One of the critical facets of this program is the opportunity to engage in supported field-based experiences. Students in the program participate in a series of three semester long field-based experiences, intended to build their capacity and knowledge base over time. These field-based experiences also provide a direct opportunity to apply ideas they have learned across their coursework to the practice of teaching. As part of the degree, students will obtain a Massachusetts Initial teaching license in Early Childhood PK-2, allowing them to teach in public early childhood classrooms and settings.
