Area III Course
This 45-hour course provides practitioners with a survey of recent developmental theory
and research on young children, ranging from infancy through the early elementary school years. Stanley
Greenspan’s model of how social/emotional competence normally unfolds is given particular focus, along
with how individual differences in child temperament, sensory processing and learning styles impact
developmental trajectories. In keeping with an applied developmental emphasis, parent-child
interactional patterns which constrain or promote emerging developmental capacities at each stage of
development is examined. $700.
