ECE 101 Week 3 DQ 1 ( Learning Approaches )
Learning Approaches
As you learned in your textbook, there are several different learning approaches that can be used in early childhood education. It is important that you are able to determine which approach to teaching you connect with the most, so that you feel confident about how you are teaching your students. This discussion will allow you to share your thoughts regarding different learning approaches.
To begin, take a few minutes to read the book below, titled “A Tale of Five Classrooms.” When reading this book, you will encounter five different classroom scenarios. Each of the scenarios describes a classroom that follows one of the five main approaches (Creative Curriculum, direct instruction, HighScope, Montessori, and Reggio Emilia) that are shared in our textbook.
After reading “A Tale of Five Classrooms,” you will:
Determine which of the classrooms is most like the classroom(s) when you attended school. Did you enjoy being in this type of classroom? Why, or why not?
Explain which classroom description aligns with the type of classroom environment you would like to create for your students by clearly stating at least three examples from the scenario that you would like to see in your own classroom. Make sure to clearly state which classroom you are discussing (Classroom A, Classroom B, etc.).
Discuss which approach to teaching you think is represented by the classroom you would like to create for your students. Be sure to use specific examples from the description as well as at least one scholarly source to support why you believe the classroom you chose represents the approach you identified. For example, if you think that Classroom B represents the direct instruction approach, you will need to use examples from the description and a scholarly source to support your thinking.
Explain which of the theorists discussed in Week Two most closely align with your choice of learning approach.
