Dr. David Biek, dean of MGA's School of Education and Behavioral Sciences, is a co-author of the new book, Lifespan Development, featured on Openstax, the premier open education resource publisher for higher education.
Lifespan Development aligns to the topics and objectives of most introductory developmental psychology courses taught across departments. Grounded in foundational theories and scientific research, the text teaches students about core aspects of human development—physical, cognitive, social, emotional—across the lifespan. A primary goal of the book is to incorporate content, scholarship, and activities that explore a variety of perspectives that encourage all students to feel seen and included."
"This was a dream opportunity - two and a half years in the making and one of the most difficult things I've ever done," says Biek. "Truly a career highlight."
