ECE 210 Social Foundations of Early Care and Education

ECE 210 So­cial Foun­da­tions of Early Care and Ed­u­ca­tion

The EC field, par­tic­u­larly in the US, is one fraught with a his­tory of in­equity that can be ad­dressed and dis­man­tled with your aware­ness and ac­tions. Over the course of the se­mes­ter, we’ll ex­plore the lives, con­texts, and con­tri­bu­tions of EC pi­o­neers, and lessons that you can apply to your own grow­ing iden­ti­ties as EC teach­ers. Over the course of this month, I want you to un­der­stand your role as ad­vo­cates for chil­dren and fam­i­lies that don’t al­ways have a seat at the table, re­gard­less of where you sit.

Black Studies Across the Americas (BSAA)

Black Stud­ies Across the Amer­i­cas (BSAA)

This pro­ject is sup­ported with U.S. De­part­ment of Ed­u­ca­tion Title VI Na­tional Re­source Cen­ter fund­ing from the Cen­ter for Latin Amer­i­can Stud­ies at The Ohio State Uni­ver­sity and the NYU Cen­ter for Latin Amer­i­can and Caribbean Stud­ies as well as the the BMCC Dept. of Eth­nic and Race Stud­ies and the Pres­i­dent’s Fund for In­no­va­tion and Ex­cel­lence, funded by McKen­zie Scott. BSAA fac­ulty and stu­dent re­searchers cre­ate OERs to help in­te­grate Black stud­ies into dis­ci­plines that his­tor­i­cally don’t ad­dress Black­ness and ques­tions of race and eth­nic­ity. BSAA OERs are hosted here on the BMCC Open­Lab to fos­ter fur­ther col­lab­o­ra­tion and use of the OERs at BMCC and be­yond.
