Prerequisites: None Class Hours: 3 lecture C-ID: ECE 230 Explores personal prejudices and biases through a self-reflection process that addresses principles of equity in the areas of culture, diverse abilities, family life, gender, and socio-economic status. Uses the self-reflection process to better inform teaching practices and/or program development by creating an awareness of the teacher's own understanding of developmentally appropriate practice in integrating anti-bias goals and embracing a celebratory approach to diversity. Identifies culturally responsive and linguistically appropriate antibias approaches that support all children in becoming competent members of a diverse society and examines the development of social identities in diverse populations, including theoretical and practical implications affecting young children, families, programs, teaching, education, and schooling.
