What is Curriculum and how do educators understand it and approach it in their daily practice? Critical thinking in early childhood practice and curriculum design is crucial. Examining our practice continuously is an important element in curriculum design. This workshop will present both the principles and elements of curriculum design and what needs to be considered when we think about it in the context of our practice.
Objectives:
• Understand what curriculum is in early childhood education.
• Discuss curriculum characteristics.
• Learn about elements and principles of curriculum.
• Explore an approach to curriculum implementation.
• Engage in critical reflection: What can be done differently and how?
