Child Development
Child Development gives students the knowledge and experience needed for working with children of all ages. Birth through adolescence is explored with emphasis on the school age child. Students will have the opportunity to take home one of our Real Care computer babies to experience the difficulties of parenthood. Any student who someday wishes to become a parent and/or wishes to work with children in some form would benefit from this course.
