9 Credit(s)

This course explores the application of theory to practice within a fourteen week internship, requiring a minimum of 300 hours of field experience in the student’s area of concentration. Throughout the internship practitioners will develop leadership in their early education and care setting, use a problem solving approach in the application of theory to real life practice, collect and analyze data to inform practice, and reflect on their internship placement. Seminars with a university supervisor will capitalize on the diversity of program settings to investigate federal and state regulations, research, policy, and practice.
