HD 2300 - Cognitive Development

(crosslisted) COGST 2300  
     
Spring. 3 credits. Student option grading.

L. Bian.

This course will provide you with an overview of how children’s cognition develops. We will investigate how cognition develops from many different perspectives. The main perspectives will be biological, genetic-epistemological, socio-cultural, and information-processing ones. This course also will help you to understand how cognition influences other areas of development, including intelligence, development of the self, language, and social development. Finally, different populations will be considered to better understand the roles not only of nature and nurture, but also of how the two interact to influence development.
