EDU 251B Typical and Atypical Child & Adolescent Development across Cultures

Analyzes learning for both typical and atypical development in children through adulthood and across cultures and explores the complementary and interdependent relationships of biology and culture. Emphasis is placed on developing a personal philosophy of how we, as a society and as individuals, can work to give children healthy foundations that support growth and learning. The course addresses major laws, concepts and principles as they are associated to creating a supportive, healthy environment for students who may or may not experience a disability. Credential candidates study the intrinsic and extrinsic effects of student health and safety when learning how to access school and community resources in order to constructively meet the legal and individual needs of a student, their families and their community.
