PSY 365 - Advanced Child Development

Credit(s): 3

This course is designed to deepen students’ knowledge of the physical, cognitive, social-emotional, and neurodevelopmental stages from prenatal through the adolescence life cycle. Child development theories and evidence-based research will provide the foundation for this course with an overarching lens of the ecological model. Family, agency, and community partnerships that foster child development will be examined. Psychological, sociocultural, and environmental influences on child development will be explored through case studies and cooperative learning activities. Diversity, equity, and inclusivity issues related to identify formation, sexuality, and life experiences will inform course topics. Students will translate theory and research to best teaching and learning approaches and professional reflective practice throughout the course.

Prerequisite(s): PSY 115  or PSY 212
