What You'll Learn
Course Synopsis:
“You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation.” The connection between play and learning was made as early as the first century B.C. by Plato. The concept of the play-based approach is influenced by many educational theorists such as Piaget, Vyogotsky and Bruner.
Countries with successful long-term educational outcomes such as Finland and Canada have employed the play-based approach. Play is an essential part of a child’s social, emotional, physical and intellectual development. Creative activities and games can spark in young children a desire to learn and have fun while they are at it. During play, children not only develop thinking and problem-solving skills, they also develop social competence, creativity and imagination. These are very important qualities required to be successful in school and life.
In this course, participants will study the theories behind the play-based approach. Participants will also learn how to develop activities and games that relate to concept development, consolidation and problem-solving. There will be discussion on how to evaluate and select suitability of activities and games for each level.
