PSYC 7255 - Special Topics in Cognitive Development

We will explore how developmental science can interface with the needs and interests of parents, caregivers, teachers, and policy-makers. Our focus will be three-fold: 1.What do we (as a field) know that might be useful to these groups? 2. What developmental issues and concerns do non-developmental scientists actually want to know about (and why)? 3. How can we (in our own research programs) frame our work to be more obviously useful?
