ED 613 Foundational and Emergent Understandings of Learning and Development

This course examines seminal work and newly emerging research and theory about how individuals neurobiologically learn and change across the life span. A focus on the identification of principles of adult learning and the differences between adults and youth as learners offers a foundation for applications and investigations within concentrations. Application to teaching and leading will be supported.
