Institution:

Western Wyoming Community College

Subject:

EDUC, EARLY CHILDHOOD

Description:

Students in this course learn to identify children's behavior to determine whether it is normal, developmentally appropriate or problematic. Cooperative discipline is explored in the wider context of classroom management, working with staff and parents. Behaviors are examined to better understand why children behave the way they do and to correct behaviors with a guidance and discipline strategy that is positive, respectful of both child and adult, and developmentally appropriate. Participants also learn to practice prevention of certain behaviors and guide children through the use of positive discipline. Using observational techniques, the class identifies developmentally appropriate characteristics and activities.
