Document Summary

Office hours: wednesday 1-2ish (or by appointment or by chance) The goal of the course is to give students a broad understanding of the principles, theories, and facts of child development. The course tries to strike a balance between teaching the material (giving fish) and. Mid-term will be in this class- show up on time! The test will be mc, not cumulative, based mostly on the text but also on lecture material. Missed mid-terms will generally be pro-rated to other grades (so the rest of the grades will be worth more) The basic structure of the seminars revolves around debates. Debates are a good way to critical examine issues related to the course. Debate topics will be posted that correspond to topics covered in lectures as a way of building on lectures. During seminars, students will individually (or sometimes in pairs) debate for or against a given topic.
