CHILD STUDY CENTER
A rich training experience for Child Development Majors and Liberal Studies Students
in a Child Development Specialization
In a collaborative effort with the Associated Students at SDSU, the Department of Child and Family Development provides "hands-on" training to its students. Many of the Child and Family Development courses use the SDSU Children Center for classroom laboratory experiences. In CFD 270 (Principles of Child Development) students have directed observations of children. In CFD 270L (Principles of Child Development Laboratory) they not only use directed observations but also learn multiple methods of recording individual and group behavior. In CFD 375/376L (Child Development Programs and the accompanying Laboratory Experiences in the Child Study Center) you will have directed experiences with children up to age five in a mainstreamed setting, study and participate in the designing and implementing of developmentally appropriate activities, learn communication techniques, basic skills and strategies for working with young children. The opportunities are endless!
