Introduction to Child Growth and Development

New Add to Schedule

Course Description

Children experience extraordinary growth and change in their first years. This course provides an overview of how development unfolds from birth to eight years, with an emphasis on the importance on developmental contexts, such as family, school, culture, and policy. We will examine how children's individual attributes and diverse experiences interact to influence development and consider how our knowledge can inform work with children.
