I also found that adult development is relevant in that language use can change throughout the entire lifetime, not just during childhood. These lessons were important in considering how people of all ages develop and use both first and second languages.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_text et_pb_text_8  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h3>Connections<\/h3>\n<p>This course connected the most to the education courses I took in my studies, in particular EDUC 250 (Second Language Acquisition), EDUC 295 (Foundations of Teaching), EDUC 245 (Teaching and Learning English Grammar), and EDUC 270 (Exploring Teaching), in their research-based approach to education and learning in children.
