I am the SCTL of the new Course ECE 3213_Teaching Science in Early Childhood. I have already developed the Syllabus of the course, created the three main assessment tools, aligned the course to NAEYC, designed all the non-TP Tasks of the course, and selected the e text book. The content is already approved from the Curriculum Prettying Committee (CPC).

Revising and Improving Existing Course ECE 3503

Applying a variety of critical and analytical thinking activities is crucial in enhancing students’ cognitive skills, enabling them to process information more deeply and approach problems with a structured, thoughtful mindset. These activities foster the development of higher order thinking skills, encouraging students to evaluate, analyze, and synthesize information rather than passively receiving it. By engaging in tasks that challenge their reasoning, interpretation, and decision-making abilities, students not only improve their academic performance but also cultivate essential life skills that prepare them for complex real-world situations. Accordingly, I often create activities to courses I teach and share with all faculty who teach the same course.
