Our small, friendly and close-knit campus community is located within the city of Williams Lake, BC named in honor of Secwepemc Chief William. Here, you’ll enjoy a quiet and affordable lifestyle, with all the amenities of a larger center, and with four seasons of spectacular outdoor adventures in your own beautiful backyard. This region is rich in history and a plentiful selection of outdoor activities in untouched wilderness, from fishing one of the 4,500 lakes, hiking to mountain tops, to snowmobiling through fresh powder.
The School of Social Work and Human Service (Faculty of Education and Social Work) at Thompson Rivers University invites applications for a sessional lecturer to teach CYCA 2500-Part 1 (CYCA 2400): Human Development – Birth to Adolescence (3.0.0). This course is delivered via face to face, in person delivery at the Williams Lake campus.
Course Description:
Knowledge of child development is critical to early childhood educators in supporting children and their families. Students will learn about child development from conception to age eight through a holistic approach, in the domains of social, emotional, physical and cognitive development. Students will apply this knowledge to their work as educators. Research, cultural impacts and the influence of major theorists will be examined.
Course Learning Outcomes:
1. Demonstrate understanding of western theories of child development from conception to birth;
2. Identify the impacts of environmental and genetic factors on fetal development, as well as the short and long-term consequences;
3. Identify milestones of typical child development for children ages birth to two years of age, and apply this knowledge to their work as educators;
4. Identify milestones of typical child development for preschool children ages three to five years, and apply this knowledge to their work as educators;
5. Identify milestones of typical child development for young children ages six to eight years, and apply this knowledge to their work as educators;
6. Critique western understandings of child development through the lens of indigenous ways of knowing;
7. Recognize that conflicting theories and perspectives exist regarding theories of lifespan development;
8. Apply contemporary scholarship in child development to the students’ personal lives and in their role as educators; and
9. Apply knowledge in both indigenous and non-indigenous environments to influence culturally sensitive and developmentally appropriate practice.
