PSY7711: Developmental Psychology I

Course Description

Success in ascertaining the needs of children and parents and our ability to work with them is inexorably intertwined with our knowledge of the pre-natal to adolescence development stages. Students investigate key developmental concepts, such as physical, cognitive and psychosocial aspects of the life span. Students apply a variety of theories and psychological concepts to in-class activities, such as watching videos, reading, individual and group presentations, research and reflection to gain a greater appreciation of the value of developmental psychology.
