- **Event Description**: How Everyday Interactions With Children Birth to Three Shape Young Children's Development and Success.About this EventClass Description: The past 25 years have provided astonishing new evidence that between 80 and 85% of lifelong brain development has been completed by the age of 3. The wiring of our brain's "superhighways" - created in infant, toddler and young children's brain infrastructure - is influenced in real time by children's moment-by-moment, everyday experiences with their parents, grandparents, extended family members, and care providers outside the family. This class outlines the mission and programs of USF's Family Study Center, which for the past 23 years has supported families in Pinellas County and Tampa Bay by working with the network of caring adults responsible for each child's care and upbringing - children's "coparents" - to optimize healthy early brain development, kindergarten readiness, and positive life trajectories, even in challenging circumstances.Instructor Bio: Dr. James McHale, Professor of Psychology and Director of the internationally recognized Family Study Center, is a USF alumnus who received his master's degree in Developmental Psychology from Tulane University and his PhD in Clinical Psychology from the University of California, Berkeley.
