The study of development is also intriguing because each </div> <div> of us, and everyone we care about, is constantly developing.  Therefore, this course embraces both scientific discoveries and </div> <div> personal insights.</div> <bR> <div> The field of lifespan developmental psychology represents a relatively new approach to a longstanding interest in how people</div> <div> change with age.  This course will examine the pertinent theories about development and discuss the findings from research, </div> <div> which reveal solutions, approaches, experimental and clinical evidence from measurement and testing. </div> <bR> <div> This course is designed for you to learn about the best  the field has to offer regarding guidelines, approaches, interpretations </div> <div> and solutions relative to development in adulthood and aging. The goal is for you to gain new knowledge and understanding </div> <div> with implications for practical application. Application to everyday life will be drawn from the exploration of theories, readings,</div> <div>  research, and discussion.</div> <bR> <div> In this course, students explore the psychological and physical changes of adulthood and aging.  Students assess diverse </div> <div> cultural variations in adult development and aging as well as research issues in adult psychology.  You will accomplish some</div> <div> of the following: 1) become familiar with theories of adult development; 2) learn and understand the developmental milestones </div> <div> taking place in adulthood and aging, with a focus on physical, cognitive and psychosocial processes; 3) examine cultural influences </div> <div> on development, and 4) critique related readings and research on adulthood and mature adulthood.</div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <I><B> <A NAME="download_syllabus_schedule_and_other"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="1" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="1" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"
