What will I learn?
This course takes you through the full arc of cognitive development, from the sensorimotor reflexes of newborns to the abstract reasoning of adolescents. You will study Piaget's stage theory, Vygotsky's sociocultural framework, and information-processing models in depth. You will also explore executive function, memory strategies, language acquisition, theory of mind, and the neuroscience behind brain maturation. Practical modules address assessment methods, individual differences, play-based learning, and the effects of technology on developing minds. By the end, you will be equipped to apply developmental science directly in educational, clinical, and family-facing settings.
