For introductory courses in Developmental Psychology, including Child Development and Life-Span Development.

Free when packaged with a PH text, this CD-ROM uses video and simulations to bring to life more than 30 key concepts discussed in Child Development and Lifespan Development courses. Students get to view each video twice: once with a brief introduction to the concept being illustrated and again with specific explanations focusing on important points in the observation. Students are then quizzed to test their understanding of what they just watched. Whether your course has an observation component or not, this CD-ROM provides your students the opportunity to see children in action.
