This clinical course is designed to provide an opportunity for students to apply early childhood educational and developmental theory to practice in a licensed early childhood setting. Students participate in an approved site where they plan and implement curriculum under the supervision of a credentialed early childhood professional. This capstone experience allows the student to integrate course work in early childhood education, curriculum, assessment, and child development. In addition, students reflect upon and analyze field experiences. Prior to capstone enrollment, students are expected to complete the majority of their required major courses. Students should consult with their advisor regarding specific major courses that may be completed with their capstone. NOTE: Students who were admitted to the college before Fall 2019 and have remained active in their original catalog year are not required to take IDIS 601.
