Help students understand how culture impacts development - and why it matters.
Through current research and examples of human development around the world, Arnett's Human Development teaches
students to think culturally about their own development and see how it
applies to their own lives and future careers.
Teaching & Learning Experience
Engage Students -
Arnett's personal anecdotes, career and real world applications,
cross-cultural examples, and in-text video scans help to engage
students.
Improve Critical Thinking -
Students learn to think critically about the influence of culture on
development. Learning objectives help students organize and understand
the material covered within each section.
Explore Research - "Research Focus" provides students with a firm grasp of various
research methods and helps them see the impact that methods can have on
research findings.
Understand Culture and Diversity - By
taking a cultural approach to human development, Arnett includes
culture on every page and integrates culture throughout the narrative.
Support Instructors -
The Arnett supplements were written and tested by a dedicated team of
instructors who teach the lifespan development course and believe in the
importance of taking a cultural approach to human development.
