Course Overview

Welcome to the Self-Leadership course!  

There are six separate sections within this Moodle site, including: 

  1. Welcome, and introduction Describes the background and purpose of the course and further defines and establishes the resource’s parameters. Introduces the ECEBC Code of Ethics as a guiding framework for ethical decision-making and professional conduct in early childhood education. Explores key terminology, concepts, and principles central to the field, focusing on how they inform personal and professional growth. 
  2. Module 1: Situating Ourselves and Anti-oppressive Frameworks Consider racism in context and the structures, supports, and schedules that support early childhood educators to enact anti-bias pedagogies.
  3. Module 2: Anti-oppressive Frameworks Explores the questions, "Who am I? Why am I here?" and the ways systems of oppression harm everyone in society.
  4. Module 3: Leading into unknowable futures Unpacks the idea that we need to know who we are, where we are, and where we got here before we can collectively sit at the table to determine where we want to go. 
  5. Course Wrap-up Offers a course summary highlighting key learnings and a curated list of references related to the course content.
  6. Assessment: Includes the final assignment, which allows you to demonstrate what you’ve learned in the course. Summarizes key takeaways and provides space to reflect on scaffolded learning.   

Accessing the sections and modules in sequence is critical as the materials and activities are designed to be scaffolded to support your success and optimize your learning experience.
