Come journey through the exciting world of Child and Adolescent Development!

Developed as a fully interactive guide to the major concepts and theories covered in child and adolescent development courses, Child and Adolescent Development is structured around three primary Learning Modules:

• Physical Development
• Cognition, Language, and Learning
• Personality, Social-Emotional, and Moral Development

• Explore key concepts and theories through narrated, Interactive Concept Overviews with key terms highlighted in red. Click "replay" to see and hear the concept overviews again. Unique Contributions & Limitations sections place the major theories in historical and theoretical context.
• Learn about the lives and work of individuals who have dedicated their research to understanding the processes by which we grow and mature. Quick access is provided through the Select Theorist menu.
• Enhance your understanding by viewing 32 explanatory videos and animations related to key topics.
• Apply what you learn through 22 different Applications, strategically placed to further explore and support concepts just covered. Email these directly to your professor for assessment!
• Review and test your knowledge through Interactive Games and Quizzes related to each major section within each Learning Module.
• Research further on your own through Web Links to the Internet and the Child and Adolescent Development companion web page.

Designed for maximum flexibility in learning!

Each Learning Module was designed with two key goals in mind: to provide a fully interactive journey through the key concepts and theories of child and adolescent development, and to provide a solid platform for review, study, and testing. To support these goals, Child and Adolescent Development features two primary forms of navigation:

• Right and left-pointing arrows at the bottom of each screen lead you through your complete journey, Module I through Module III, beginning to end. Clickable "continue" sections let you know when additional content is present on consecutive screens.
• Navigation buttons on the left side for all primary concepts provide quick access to the specific material you want at any one time. In addition, links to Games, Quizzes, and Web Links are accessible from both the main splash page and within modules--again, for quick and easy access.

In addition, you can quickly pinpoint exactly where you are in any Module by referencing the red bar at the top of the screen, which tracks each Module's progression through easy-to-understand content outlines.
