Follows and complements the lecture material presented in the fall semester. Students dissect human cadavers for the purpose of learning the skeletal, muscular, nervous, and circulatory systems.

Introduction to research and theory of human development across the life span. Seminal theories & basic research of individual growth & development are analyzed & critiqued. Emphasis is on the range in human development with discussion of normative & non-normative development. Emphasis is also placed on the importance of understanding the influence of normative & non-normative contexts of development, including the impact of culture, heritage, socioeconomic level, personal health, & safety. Relations between home, school, & community and their impact on development are also explored via readings, lectures, discussions, & weekly observations in the field. Interrogation of implicit folk theories as a foundation for exploration of formal knowledge of human development.

This course is designed to provide education studies students with an opportunity to gain or enhance their knowledge of different aspects of education by exploring an area of interest under the guidance of a full-time professor. Students may enroll in credit-bearing, paid or unpaid, internship work directly related to their interests in education studies under the guidance of an NYU full-time professor through an independent study. Only students who have successfully completed one full academic year at NYU will be considered eligible to use internship or fieldwork work to satisfy an independent study. The course requires a minimum of 45 hours of academic or fieldwork per point. Points are determined by the student and the professor.
