I believe any of the seventeen courses that I’ve taken through CCEI would prove helpful to workers in child care. Loving Math, I enjoyed CCEI430, realizing once more that concepts related to higher mathematics begin on playgrounds and even the floor with shapes, sorting, counting colors and more. ADM 108 and 109 confirmed that some of us, while lacking administrative skill and interest, can be natural mentors. I loved the idea of being a catalyst towards adults’ as well as children’s perpetual progress–without even having to give a grade! (Remember that I’ve taught legions of adults. The hardest part is the grading.) CUR 111 and pieces of other courses expanded my understanding of the need for not just accepting, but embracing, diversity in our classrooms, for all ages.
