Behavior Guidance
This course examines the positive, developmentally appropriate strategies used to guide children's behavior and support social and emotional development during early childhood. Emphasis is on problem prevention and positive guidance strategies; recognition, communication, limit setting, problem solving, and behavior modification. Multiple influences on child behavior as well as strategies to support self-regulation and peer relationships during early childhood will be examined. This course integrates theory with developmentally and culturally appropriate practices (DCAP) in home and center-based settings. This course provides learners with a variety of field experience opportunities, including in person, virtual observations, and artificial intelligence-powered web simulations.
