Child Development

Description

The early years are very important in the optimal healthy development of a human's life. From conception to 12 years old, an interactive process of physical, cognitive, social, emotional, environmental and cultural factors influences child development. Students examine the phase of child development and explore the importance of prevention and intervention concepts that optimize healthy development by linking theory to child and youth care practice. Developmental stages, heredity, culture and environmental influences are addressed with emphasis placed on the interdependency between the physical, cognitive and social/emotional milestones in childhood.
