- Course Catalog Description:
- This course will examine normative physical, social, and cognitive development from the prenatal period through adolescence. The major goals include fostering an understanding of the usefulness of a developmental approach to psychological issues, familiarizing students with current research and methodology in child psychology, and engaging students in the experiences of developmental psychology through observation and analysis of child behavior. PSY majors should take the cross-listed course CPSY 3301.
- Class Description:
- No credit will be given received for 3309, 5301; prereq 5 cr introductory psychology, 4 cr. "Child Development: Its Nature and Course," 2nd edition by Sroufe, Cooper and DeHart. This is a survey course in child development. The primary goal of the course is to introduce you to the nature of child development and to the scientific study of development. We will cover the major domains of development - cognitive, social, and emotional - from the prenatal period to early adolescence. Following the approach adopted in the required text, the course is organized chronically. Because the course is designed to provide to provide an overview of the field of development psychology, no one topic is covered in depth. Students who are especially interested in pursuing specific areas in greater depth are encouraged to take more advanced courses (e.g., CPSY 3343, Cognitive Development; CPSY 3303, Adolescent Development) The primary class format will be lecture, but there will be daily discussion and regular focused discussions on listed topics. There also will be numerous videotape presentations - all illustrating central features of child development.
