LSECE 200 Child Development and Cognition Prenatal – 9 Years

6 Credits

Child Development and Cognition is designed to investigate the theory and experience of children in the perceptual, motor, cognitive, social, psychological, and moral domains of development. This course specifically addresses these constructs from the prenatal period to nine years of age. Additionally, Pennsylvania’s Early Childhood Learning Standards are studied as the guideposts for teacher candidates to provide responsive instruction, curriculum, collaboration, and assessment. Additionally, this course examines the application of the principles and theories of child development and learning in order to promote responsive instruction, curriculum, collaboration, and assessment in the classroom. A practicum is a required component of this course which enables students to learn observation, assessment, and record-keeping skills.
