ED 517 Human Development: The School Years, K–12


(3 credits)
In this course, we will engage in a collaborative dialogue to understand physical, cognitive, social, and emotional development in children and adolescence with a special attention to developing a cultural perspective to understanding human development. We will examine child and adolescent growth and development within their contextual influences (family, school, peer group, culture, and race, ethnicity & social class) and look for similarities and differences in development across cultural communities as a result of their participation in cultural practices.

IMPORTANT: Students must have current background checks documents on file with the School of Education. (See Background Checks)
