ECE-281 Field Placement IV

In this course students are placed in a variety of settings in the community such as child-care centres, kindergartens and playschools. Students will plan, implement, and evaluate developmentally appropriate activities and play areas for young children. Appropriate field trips for the children in the field placement program will be planned, implemented and evaluated. Students will begin the process of self-evaluation of their attitudes and skills in working with children and families. The record-keeping system developed in Field Placement III will be evaluated, changes will be implemented and the system will be used throughout the field placement. The field placement experience is under the guidance of professionals with the co-operation of the coordinator/operator involved. Students are expected to demonstrate personal and professional attitudes and behaviours necessary for functioning as effective early childhood professionals with young children.
