Child Directed Learning
Question Description
One- two paragraphs
You are the new director of an early childhood program which is pursuing
NAEYC accreditation. Currently, your staff members rely heavily on
direct, whole-group instruction to teach children new concepts. Your
job is to encourage teachers to create more child-centered,
developmentally appropriate classroom environments by demonstrating the
benefits of child-centered learning.
In your post you will first describe a traditional, direct instruction
activity and its learning outcome (e.g., students will read a book about
plants and name the parts of a plant). Then describe how teachers could
meet the same outcome using a child-directed strategy. These strategies
include exploratory play, guided discovery, problem solving, and
discussions. You may choose to include a Youtube video of your
strategy/activity and include a private link so we can view it. Please
do not include children in your video.
