EEC 2200 - Curriculum in Childhood Education EEC 2200 - Curriculum in Childhood Education The course examines the basic concepts that underlie Developmentally Appropriate Practices (DAP). At the core there is a strong emphasis on making the curriculum child-centered; that is, respecting each child’s culture, ethnicity, religion, language, and unique approaches to learning. Crucial to achieving this is an understanding of the ages and stages of development occurring with young children from infancy to 4 years of age, variations in their development, and their developmental process for learning.
