Seminar in Cognitive Development.

Catalog description

Advanced developmental seminar focusing on theoretical and empirical research covering topics in cognitive development. Specific topics will be related to cognitive development of children from conception through emerging adulthood with consideration of biological, environmental, and sociocultural influences. Students will critically evaluate cognitive developmental theories as they apply to diverse populations, individual differences, contexts, and historical time. Students will also reflect on how to use that knowledge to work towards antiracism, equity, and inclusion in the study of cognitive development.
