MIT researcher Deb Roy wanted to understand how his infant son learned language -- so he wired up his house with videocameras to catch every moment (with exceptions) of his son's life, then parsed 90,000 hours of home video to watch "gaaaa" slowly turn into "water." Astonishing, data-rich research with deep implications for how we learn. Deb Roy studies how children learn language, and designs machines that learn to communicate in human-like ways. On sabbatical from MIT Media Lab, he's working with the AI company Bluefin Labs. A quiz, thought provoking question, and links for further study are provided to create a lesson around the 20-minute video. Educators may use the platform to easily "Flip" or create their own lesson for use with their students of any age or level.

Class video exercise that helps students practice strategies outlined in the text "Child, Family, and Community" by Rebecca Laff and Wendy Ruiz.

This unit comprises a series of introductory lessons about child development theories.  It is intended to help students differentiate each theory and its theorist, not necessarily help students learn the particulars of each theory.  That will come later.  The notes are given in a very visual manner with the student writing directly on the image of the theorist they are studying.  Interactive reviews are provided to help students solidify their learning.  These theories will come up throughout a child or lifespan development class, so it is important that the information be learned and retained.Piaget, Erikson, and Kohlberg are all studied.  It is best if they are studied in this order as bell ringers and review materials are designed accordingly.All Lesson Materials can be found at the following link.  Erik Erikson Notes

Welcome to Child Growth and Development. This text is a presentation of how and why children grow, develop, and learn. We will look at how we change physically over time from conception through adolescence. We examine cognitive change, or how our ability to think and remember changes over the first 20 years or so of life. And we will look at how our emotions, psychological state, and social relationships change throughout childhood and adolescence.

The Open for Antiracism (OFAR) Program – co-led by CCCOER and College of the Canyons – emerged as a response to the growing awareness of structural racism in our educational systems and the realization that adoption of open educational resources (OER) and open pedagogy could be transformative at institutions seeking to improve. The program is designed to give participants a workshop experience where they can better understand anti-racist teaching and how the use of OER and open pedagogy can empower them to involve students in the co-creation of an anti-racist classroom. The capstone project involves developing an action plan for incorporating OER and open pedagogy into a course being taught in the spring semester. OFAR participants are invited to remix this template to design and share their projects and plans for moving this work forward. 

This activity allows undergraduate early childhood or child development students to work collaboratively to find and identify reliable national and local resources regarding child observation, referral, assessment, and intervention services.
