Developmental Stages of Early Childhood Through Adolescence

The course includes an examination of the psychosocial development of the child from conception through adolescence-noting physical, intellectual, emotional, social, and moral factors. Respected age-appropriate theories of education and their practical application are studied. Curriculum and materials are examined and evaluated as related to state standards and a developmentally appropriate approach to the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS). Observations in local schools are required. (This course is AGP-eligible.)
