Depending on the depth of the project, the student can earn from 1-5 credits. In addition to following individual interests through the independent study option, students may also work independently on required courses through the use of modules that have been developed for this purpose. Students may sign up for independent work for courses that are not meeting that quarter. Under certain circumstances, students may have the option to use the modules if they are unable to attend class during the assigned times. Usually students must have been enrolled in other Early Childhood classes.
Permission is determined by the program manager.
Students work closely with an instructor to fulfill the requirements of the course using the module as a guide.
