Synopsis

The three goals of developmental psychology are to describe, explain,
and  optimise  human development. This course provides students  with
the knowledge necessary to achieve these goals.

The  course  takes  a  life-span approach, but  concentrates  on  the
earliest  phases,  from conception  through adolescence,  introducing
students   to   the   challenges,  achievements,   and   difficulties
encountered at each phase.
