Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The lecture gives an overview of the most important developmental phenomena in human life. Under the view of classical and modern development theories, the students get to know relevant developmental concepts and acquire developmental expertise focused on childhood and adolescence. After an insight into the traditions of developmental psychology and their views on development, the cognitive, socio-emotional and psychological development of children and adolescents are focused and school-related topics such as learning, bullying and developmental disorders are taken up and reflected.
The lecture takes place digitally: for each date, a recorded lecture is available in Moodle. Questions of understanding can be clarified with the lecturer in an additional digital consultation for each appointment. A prior registration for the additional digital consultation is required via Moodle.
