EDECE3029 Infants and Toddlers
This unit introduces the Pre-Service Teacher (PST) to education and care for infants and toddlers with a focus on social and emotional development and attachment. PSTs will examine historical and contemporary perspectives and approaches and their impact on young children¿s development and wellbeing. Using their knowledge of child development, learning frameworks and inclusive teaching strategies, PSTs will plan engaging experiences for infants and toddlers. Reflection on values and beliefs about teaching, care, learning and relationships will enable PSTs to develop their personal teaching philosophy and advocate for quality early childhood education and care experiences for young children and their families.
