| Syllabus: | Situated in the context of theory and research, this unit provides an overview of typical and atypical human development from conception to early adolescence across physical, cognitive, social and emotional domains. Biological and environmental influences on development are examined. Implications for contemporary educators are explored with a focus on maximizing developmental outcomes during the first 12 years of life. In addition to emphasis on Standard 1 (know your students and how they learn) of the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers, this unit focuses on effective engagement and interaction with parents/carers and maintaining safe school and care environments for children (Standards 3.7, 4.4 and 7.3). The corresponding Australian Children’s Education and Care Quality Authority’s Curriculum Specification 1 (psychology and child development) 3 (early childhood pedagogies) and 4 (family and community contexts) are addressed. |
