This course is an overview of physical, cognitive, emotional and social development during the preschool years, ages 3-6. A range of theoretical viewpoints, research findings and practical issues will be considered within the context of the  dynamic nature of development and the uniqueness of each individual child and family. Professional standards for working  with preschool-age children and their families will be examined. A weekly field observation in early childhood programs,  schools, agencies or therapeutic settings is required.  Students must have three current clearances: a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Criminal History Clearance, a Pennsylvania State Police Criminal Record Check and a Pennsylvania Child Abuse History Clearance, as well as meet the local requirements of the field placement site.
