Course Samplers
The EarlyEdU Alliance competency-based courses in early childhood education combine theory and the latest research with students’ field-based learning. The conceptual framework that undergirds our approach is that of intentional teaching, which requires teachers to know what to do in the moment, see effective teaching in themselves and others, do these practices in the classroom, reflect on what works and what does not, and improve with thoughtful practices.
