Module Synopsis
單元概要
Early childhood has been considered a formative stage for later life. A normal child development and a good early education are indispensable in fostering a better future. It is essential for the kindergarten practitioners to have a firm understanding of the factors and complexities of human development, with special reference to the early years. In this course, students will further examine the various developmental areas from a holistic perspective, while highlighting inter-relationships among them. The age range studied would be extended from birth to late childhood. Students would also reflect on the existence of individual differences and devise ways of catering for those children in need. Methods of child study will be further explored, the rationale of developmental assessment will be reviewed, assessment instruments will be introduced, and a wider repertory of observation skills will be practiced.
