/in /by

As you have been learning, every human being is unique in physical appearance and abilities, cognitive competencies, and social and emotional makeup and acuity; this is the wonder of our humanness. As well, every child is a unique example of this diversity.

This week, you have had the opportunity to learn about the ways in which modern developmental psychology views special needs or “varying abilities.” In other words, children’s special needs (or varying abilities) may be variations of normal development.
