    Description
    CD 005 is the study of the typical growth and development of the child from conception life through adolescence, with a concentration on the first six years of life. Issues concerning the physical, cognitive, emotional, and social development of the child will be studied from relevant theoretical positions and investigative research methodologies. There will be an emphasis on interactions between maturational processes and environmental factors. Students will be involved in observing, interviewing, and applying relevant development evaluations.
