Educational Psychology was beneficial and enlightening. I learned the developmental stages that people go through and how their brain development affects their learning. I also learned about various handicaps and disabilities. Discovering the different learning styles was helpful. Creating the lesson plans for the various learning styles made me think in depth on how to reach many children with one lesson. I observed several teachers looking for specific traits that focused on psychological well-being of the students, unspoken language, and physical environment. Having this assignment helped me look at teachers in a different light and the effect of their behavior and attitudes on children. I am more sensitive to the classroom environment now.
I learned alot in this course and have a better understanding of childrens' development physically and mentally.
