The child development from birth to adulthood and some pathological conditions are discussed in a public health and health promotion perspective (e.g. : learning disorders, systematic neonatal screening, child abuse or neglect, exploratory behavior at adolescence, chronic diseases, eating disorders). The course will provide the basic knowledge regarding child development and frequent pathologies. In addition, we will insist on interpretation of epidemiological and public health data.
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
Understand the normal and pathological child and adolescent development and the related public health aspects in order to allow the public health worker to integrate such aspects in his future work. Interpret epidemiological or public health data or graphs illustrating the subjects developped during the class.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning)
Ten lessons of 2 hours based on interactive lectures. Before the lecture, a scenario related to the topic of the lesson and involving some of the teaching messages is proposed. This scenario is discussed in small groups and comments and questions of the students are collected. In the lecture, several aspects related to the lesson topic are detailed. Graphs and data are discussed interactively. Finally, the different learning objectives are given.
Recommended or required readings
The powerpoint presentations used for the different courses are made available to the students, before the lessons so that they can use print-out and add personal comments during the lesson. In addition, a summary of the basic notions is available online (MyULg)
