PSYC367

An applied study of child psychology. This course is best taken in conjunction with or after completing PSYC 263. This course provides students with an opportunity to apply their skills and knowledge in a field experience focused on child development. Students will spend the equivalent of one-day-per-week volunteering in a practicum assignment, e.g., a preschool or school for children, an after-school program for children. Class meetings and requirements are focused on supportung the development of students' abilities to integrate knowledge and experience. As most community service agencies tend to be open during the hours of 9am to 3:30pm, students should leave one day free in their schedules to accommodate fieldwork placement. Due to obligations to community agencies and their clients, admission to fieldwork placements is at the discretion of the psychology faculty. Fulfills Category 7 requirement. Fieldwork Insurance Fee.
