5 PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The Child Development Practitioner Apprenticeship Program (CDP) consists of a total of 22 courses; 16 theory courses and 6 placement courses. The theory courses are completed through a distance education delivery model. The placement courses are completed at your place of employment, as well as, other Ontario Licensed child care settings. More detailed information concerning placement courses is provided starting on page 16 of this handbook. In the Child Development Practitioner Apprenticeship Program, students will be expected to access Ontario licensed childcare facilities for observations and placement courses. The distance education delivery model depends on your ability to plan and manage your time efficiently. While distance education offers convenience and flexibility, you should expect to allocate at least 5 hours per week on each course you are registered in. Weeks that assignments are due, you may need to expect to spend more time on each course. Parallel to enrollment at Loyalist College, apprentices are also registered as a Child Development Practitioner Apprentice with the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities (MTCU). You and your employer must enter into a contract, representing your employer s willingness to support you in gaining specific skills at the workplace, as well as, the signing- off of your contract which reflects the number of working hours you have accrued. Upon successful completion of the 22 apprenticeship courses AND the on-the-job training requirements, you are eligible to receive the Child Development Practitioner Certificate of Apprenticeship from the MTCU. Course registration for CDP varies based on MTCU direction.

9 GENERAL EDUCATION COURSES The purpose of General Education courses at Loyalist College is to broaden a student s sense of self and the world in which he/she lives. In turn, this wider scope gives graduates adaptability in workplaces that are constantly changing. According to the Framework for Programs of Instruction General Education Requirement from the MTCU, the purpose of General Education in the Ontario college system is to contribute to the development of citizens who are conscious of the diversity, complexity, and richness of the human experience; who are able to establish meaning through this consciousness; and who, as a result, are able to contribute thoughtfully, creatively, and positively to the society in which they live and work. General Education strengthens students generic skills, such as critical analysis, problem solving and communication, in the context of an exploration of topics with broad-based personal and/or societal importance. General education courses cover areas of general interest and are divided into five themes: THEME 1. ARTS IN SOCIETY Rationale: The capacity of a person to recognize and evaluate artistic and creative achievements is useful in many aspects of his/her life. Since artistic expression is a fundamentally human activity, which both reflects and anticipates developments in the larger culture, its study will enhance the student s cultural and selfawareness. Content: Courses in this area should provide students with an understanding of the importance of visual and creative arts in human affairs, of the artist s and writer s perceptions of the world and the means by which those perceptions are translated into the language of literature and artistic expression. They will also provide an appreciation of the aesthetic values used in examining works of art and possibly, a direct experience in expressing perceptions in an artistic medium. THEME 2. CIVIC LIFE Rationale: In order for individuals to live responsibly and to reach their potential as individuals and as citizens of society, they need to understand the patterns of human relationships that underlie the orderly interactions of a society s various structural units. Informed people will have knowledge of the meaning of civic life in relation to diverse communities at the local, national, and global level, and an awareness of international issues and the effects of these on Canada, and Canada s place in the international community. Content: Courses in this area should provide students with an understanding of the meaning of freedoms, rights, and participation in community and public life, in addition to a working knowledge of the structure and function of various levels of government (municipal, provincial, national) in Canada and/or in an international context. 9
10 They may also provide an historical understanding of major political issues affecting relations between the various levels of government in Canada and their constituents. THEME 3. SOCIAL AND CULTURAL UNDERSTANDING Rationale: Knowledge of the patterns and precedents of the past provide the means for a person to gain an awareness of his or her place in contemporary culture and society. In addition to this awareness, students will acquire a sense of the main currents of their culture and that of other cultures over an extended period of time in order to link personal history to the broader study of culture. Content: Courses in this area are those that deal broadly with major social and cultural themes. These courses may also stress the nature and validity of historical evidence and the variety of historical interpretation of events. Courses will provide the students with a view and understanding of the impact of cultural, social, ethnic, or linguistic characteristics. THEME 4. PERSONAL UNDERSTANDING Rationale: Educated people are equipped for life-long understanding and development of themselves as integrated physiological and psychological entities. They are aware of the ideal need to be fully functioning ersons: mentally, physically, emotionally, socially, spiritually, and vocationally. Content: Courses in this area will focus on understanding the individual: his or her evolution; situation; relationship with others; place in the environment and universe; achievements and problems; and his or her meaning and purpose. They will also allow students the opportunity to study institutionalized human social behaviour in a systematic way. Courses fulfilling this requirement may be oriented to the study of the individual within a variety of contexts. THEME 5. SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY Rationale: Matter and energy are universal concepts in science, forming a basis for understanding the interactions that occur in living and non-living systems in our universe. Study in this area provides an understanding of the behaviour of matter that provides a foundation for further scientific study and the creation of broader understanding about natural phenomena. Similarly, the various applications and developments in the area of technology have an increasing impact on all aspects of human endeavour and have numerous social, economic, and philosophical implications. For example, the operation of computers to process data at high speed has invoked an interaction between machines and the human mind that is unique in human history. This development and other technological developments have a powerful impact on how we deal with many of the complex questions in our society. 10
11 Content: Courses in this area should stress scientific inquiry and deal with basic or fundamental questions of science rather than applied ones. They may be formulated from traditional basic courses in such areas of study as biology, chemistry, physics, astronomy, geology, or agriculture. As well, courses related to understanding the role and functions of computers (e.g., data management and information processing), and assorted computer-related technologies, should be offered in a non-applied manner to provide students with an opportunity to explore the impact of these concepts and practices on their lives.

19 ACADEMIC INTEGRITY All Loyalist students must comply with the manual regarding the Student Code of Conduct located online at: Sept-2.pdf Loyalist College believes that the development of self-discipline and acceptable standards of academic integrity are fundamental to the learning process. The establishment and maintenance of professional behaviour is the responsibility of all members of the Loyalist College community. Sanctions for non-compliance range from a written warning to expulsion from the College. All students are expected to conform to the following behaviour: Represent themselves honestly in all communications, applications, assignments, examinations, and other correspondence; This includes the inappropriate use or possession of unauthorized aids or assistance in connection with any form of academic work. It is expected that all work submitted must be one s own or clearly cited; Foster a positive learning environment for all individuals and respect the views of others during class discussions; Use computer resources, including the internet, in accordance with Loyalist College policy and not store or transmit offensive material through computing resources; Respect and adhere to all policies of Loyalist College relating to student conduct. Loyalist College will penalize acts that demonstrate disregard for the standards of academic integrity. At minimum, a student will be graded zero on any material thought to be dishonest, but the College may reserve the right to impose a full range of sanctions including suspension or expulsion. Plagiarism involves submitting work that is substantially copied from the work of another person and representing that work as your own. This includes: the work of other students, books, magazines, information found on the internet, periodicals, newspapers, etc. A number of courses have assignments that require you to answer textbook review questions. Copying the answer from the textbook word-for-word is plagiarism. Review questions must always be answered in your own words. The only exception is if the question asks you to define a word or term; definitions can be copied word-for-word. In order to avoid plagiarism, you must document all your sources both within the text of the written document and in the reference section at the end of the document. The Academic Integrity Protocol process is available at INTERNET, USE FOR RESEARCH PURPOSES The Internet can be a valuable source of information to students. However, it is your responsibility to evaluate the credibility of information found on the Internet before using it for the purposes of completing an assignment. All five of the following components must be considered: Source: Note the extension on the website address. A site that ends in.gov or.gc comes the government;.edu is froman education institution;.org is from an organization;.com may be a commercial site, which may be informative but may also be trying to sell something. 19
20 Author: Articles on a credible website have author(s) who are either people or organizations. Authors have credentials and expertise in the subject matter. An address at the bottom of the page does not signify authorship. Current: The information must be current. Has the site been updated recently? The date the website was last revised should appear at the bottom of the website page. Accuracy: Is the information correct and without errors? Is there a reference section? A reference section will include all original sources of the information used by the author. Does the article contain facts, interviews or statistics that can be verified elsewhere? Is the information biased with a political, personal or economic agenda? Is the information simply a personal opinion or an attempt to sell something? Purpose: Is the purpose of the article to educate, inform, influence or sell a product? If you are satisfied that the information is credible, it is appropriate to reference it to support the content of your assignment. It is not acceptable to simply print material from a website and submit it as your assignment. For example; for an assignment that asks you to discuss a current issue in child care, it would be appropriate to talk about, in your own words, material you find on the website for the Association of Early Childhood Educators, Ontario. It would not be appropriate to simply print the Association s Position Paper on Universality and present it as your discussion of the issue. ETIQUETTE Etiquette is defined as the rules governing socially acceptable behavior. Socially acceptable behavior varies greatly depending on who you are with, your relationship to that person, and the environment that you are in. If you are writing to coworkers that you communicate with frequently and have developed working relationships with them, you can be as flexible as the environment allows. However, if you are corresponding with an instructor, you will need to be more careful with your behavior. Despite the fact that this article is largely concerned with , most of this advice will also apply to other forms of electronic communications such as chat, message boards, and web pages. Why do I need to worry about etiquette? Most people in business and education are using as a form of communication. Just as you follow certain normative expectations when communicating with different types of people in person, you should also do the same when writing. Not following these types of social standards can often lead to miscommunication, resulting in the recipient holding a negative opinion or simply ignoring your altogether. Generally speaking, well written messages will be more effective in conveying your ideas and building strong relationships with peers, teachers, and employers. In other words, how you act in a social environment plays an important role in how people form their opinions about you. In some cases, may be the only form of communication that you have with an individual. Therefore, using good etiquette in your messages is paramount. 20
21 Format Address the recipient properly. For example, be sure to use the proper salutation, social title and greeting (i.e., Mr. Ms. Miss, Dr. Professor, etc.). Also, check to see if your recipient has a strong preference on how they should be addressed. Normally, they will let you know if they would like you to alter how you are addressing them. Rules on Using First Names: Only use a recipient s first name if you have a personal relationship with that person. If they have sent you a message signing it with only their first name. Don t shorten a name or assume a common nickname for someone. (i.e., not all people named Robert will want to be called Bob.). Message Length: Make sure that your message length is appropriate for the subject. Don t ramble! If a message is too long and does not get to the point quickly, the recipient may quit reading and disregard the message. If a message is too short, you may be perceived as being snippy or uncommunicative. Use lists when possible. This will make the information easier for the recipient to read. One subject per message: Keep to a single subject when composing a message. Also, be sure that your subject line accurately describes the nature of the General Tone: Pleasantries go a long way! Greetings and salutations such as, Hello, Have a good weekend, Hope you are feeling better! work very well in developing and maintaining a professional rapport. Also, don t forget to write Please and Thank You. ALL CAPITAL LETTERS: Writing in all capital letters is perceived as yelling in written communication. Capital letters are also much harder to read; we rely on ascenders and descenders in letters such as b, d, g, h, q, y to help us recognize characters by their shapes. In other words, avoid composing messages in all capital letters at all cost. Over punctuating: Avoid overusing punctuation in messages. Depending on your audience, the following may be perceived as unprofessional: ƒ!!!!!!!?????????? ƒ Emoticons " :) ;) =) Abbreviations: Don t use abbreviations when communicating professionally. For example, don t use the following: U instead of you 2 instead of too or to thanx instead of Thanks ; etc. The above examples may be acceptable in messages addressed to close friends, but are normally considered too casual when communicating professionally. 21
22 Egregious: Proof Read! Always proof read messages before clicking send. Also, be sure and double check your spelling and grammar manually. Spell check will not catch the times when you incorrectly use to and should have used too or there when you should have used their. Lastly, check names for misspelling.
