EDU 151 Typical and Atypical Child and Adolescent Development

Candidates establish a basic understanding of the stages for human development ranging from prenatal through adulthood and the atypical factors that may influence or disrupt the learning stages throughout a lifetime. Numerous disabilities commonly seen in schools, social cultural and personal influences are associated with the common consequences of atypical development. Candidates learn to effectively construct interventions for resiliency and redevelopment, for both the subject and their families. (Often cross-listed with EDU 251A)
