CHED 0654 - Human Development and Learning

This is a foundation course that explores the relationship of educational psychology to Christian education and faith development. With emphasis on developmental psychology and learning theory systems, learners will study some key developmental theorists and their impact upon human development, learning and faith development. The aim of this course is to reflect upon a fundamental question, “How are intellect, personality, morality and belief systems related in faith formation?”. Learners will critique various psychological concepts within a theological framework, and where possible, integrate them into a more fully informed approach in Christian education. Offered annually.

NOTE: [CHED 0552], [CHED 0551] or [CHED 0654] are good courses to begin with as they lay important educational and theological foundations in the program.
