Course Information

This program is designed for students who wish to become elementary school teachers. Completion of the Child Development Elementary Education program (CDEE) requirements also satisfies Humboldt’s general education, institutions, and diversity/ common ground requirements.

CDEE has several distinct features:

  • Students take the traditional disciplines taught in elementary schools alongside courses focusing on developmental characteristics of children.

  • The program emphasizes working with children from grades K-6.

  • Students learn how classroom, school, home, and community impact the child and the learning process.

  • Courses explore different philosophies of education but emphasize those that see children as active learners.

  • Students explore careers to clarify their professional goals.

  • Students participate in multiple supervised classroom experiences.

Elementary school teachers must be able to teach children basic subject, but they must also integrate social studies; the visual and performing arts; health and physical education; life, physical, and earth sciences; and literature. CDEE uses the liberal arts to give students background in content areas they will teach. Simultaneously, child development courses orient them to the children with whom they will work.

The depth of study area focuses on teaching 5- to 9-year-old children enrolled in kindergarten through third grade. It provides in-depth exposure to theories and methodologies that consider children as capable and active learners who construct knowledge through meaningful experiences.

The CDEE concentration encourages frequent self-assessment and guided career exploration. Supervised experiences in children’s classrooms are key. CDEE students acquire guidance and discipline skills and prepare developmentally appropriate curriculum while working in early primary classrooms.
