Infancy and Early Development - ECH216
This unit focuses on the development of infants and young children aged 0-3 years within the Australian social context. Theories and research, which attempt to describe and explain early childhood development and individual differences, are critically examined. Implications for the prenatal, cognitive, social/emotional, language and motor development during the first three years of life are examined. Students are also encouraged to make links between the content covered and observations and experiences with infants and very young children.
