This course is a self-paced course designed to cover 12 weeks of study, however it can be completed faster if learner desires. This is an introductory course to Child Development. Each week, I will have a video presentation of the day's topic. Each week, there will be intriguing journal questions related to the topic of the week. Assignments will include engaging projects, and observations of children (if learner has that availability) to relate back to the theories and ages and stages we are studying. We will discuss careers that utilize child development principles daily.
