EDMC 4477 - Physical & Cognitive Development

Credits: 2
The course explores the various components involved in understanding the physical and cognitive development of children in fourth and fifth grade. The course involves a study of the appropriate methods required in creating an educational environment that is nurturing, stimulating, and welcoming for all children.  Discussions around developmentally appropriate practice ensure that students understand the physical, social, emotional, cognitive, and language needs of the fourth and fifth grade learners.  Students gain an understanding of these needs through a study of major learning and childhood development theories.
