- Language Development/First Seminar
A comprehensive survey of the basic issues and topics involved in the study of language development with a focus on connections to social and cultural factors. The course begins with an examination of early and influential theories of language development. Against this background we then turn to the question of how children acquire language, with special emphasis on the relationship to cognitive and social development, as well as evolutionary and comparative work. Prerequisite: PSYC150.
