EDUC 34 Adolescent Development and Education

Adolescence is a period of dramatic physical, cognitive, and psychosocial growth that provides both opportunities and risks for healthy development and educational attainment. This course will explore how physical maturation and brain development during adolescence transform an individual's self-identity, relationships with others, thinking and moral judgments. Since school is a central experience in most adolescents' lives, we will examine its crucial role in adolescent development, and also the influence of parents, peers, and society. Open to all classes.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
