Description
This module focuses on the "family" and includes Family study project work on pregnancy, birth, and the impact of a baby in a family setting, human development from infancy to adolescence, and sociological and psychological perspectives of families. Communication and research skills will be developed in the module. In this module people will be considered in "populations and societies". Epidemiological science will be introduced: causes, spread, measurement, determinants and prevention of disease will be closely examined. The life cycle strand which addresses adulthood includes work on sexuality. Ways people behave in groups, communities and societies are considered in the psychology and sociology sessions.
