Overview
Frameworks for Learning and Development supports training and delivery of the Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care.
The text primarily addresses developmental subjects/competencies while linking to the EYLF and reflects the key components of the National Quality Framework (NQF) for Children’s Services as they relate to curriculum and pedagogical practices in early childhood settings.
- Aligned to NEW CHC19 training package
- Exploration of play-based pedagogy and what it means, and how it might influence curriculum design
- Greater focus on unpacking the EYLF so that educators are able to demonstrate to students how it influences the planning and implementations of a children's education and care curriculum, play as learning, intentional teaching and setting up an environment for learning
- How to undertake assessment as and for learning; use of case study to demonstrate the link between observation and planning
- MindTap with media quizzes, polling activities supports digital delivery
- New intermediate mapping grid shows how the text addresses core competency units of the Diploma and enables planning for course delivery
- An abundance of scenario-based activities in each chapter show students how theory ties to workplace experience, and assists trainers in planning assessments and homework
- Clarifies links between curriculum, regulations and NQS so that trainers can demonstrate compliance in an education and care service
