					Research supports the fact that time, energy and money spent early in life is 
					an important investment in healthy development. People who work with children and 
					families should have a strong foundation of knowledge so that they can help 
					children reach their potential.
					&lt;br /&gt;
					&lt;br /&gt;
					The Science of Early Child Development uses multimedia and interactivity to make 
					research come &#8216;alive&#8217;.
					&lt;br /&gt;
					&lt;br /&gt;
					The resource consists of 5 modules:
					&lt;ul&gt;
						&lt;li&gt;Developmental Health&lt;/li&gt;
						&lt;li&gt;Brain Development&lt;/li&gt;
						&lt;li&gt;The Ecology of Childhood&lt;/li&gt;
						&lt;li&gt;Coping &amp;amp; Competence&lt;/li&gt;
						&lt;li&gt;Communicating &amp;amp; Learning&lt;/li&gt;
					&lt;/ul&gt;
					&lt;br /&gt;
					In each module you see a combination of readings, videos, links to important 
					websites, examples, audio clips, questions for reflection and interactive games. 
					You can move through the various media by clicking on icons such as View&gt;&gt;, 
					Read&gt;&gt;, Explore&gt;&gt;, Play&gt;&gt; and Listen&gt;&gt;. 
					&lt;br /&gt;
					&lt;br /&gt;
					The content is all online and once you have a personal password, you have access 
					to the whole resource.
					&lt;br /&gt;
					&lt;br /&gt;
					In the over 150 videos you see:
					&lt;ul&gt;
						&lt;li&gt;Interviews with researchers and experts talking about their work in everyday 
							language.&lt;/li&gt;
						&lt;li&gt;Scenes of children at play and in various daily routines. &lt;/li&gt;
						&lt;li&gt;Children interacting with parents or caregivers.&lt;/li&gt;
						&lt;li&gt;Scientific presentations and footage of research activities. &lt;/li&gt;
						&lt;li&gt;Complete video programs related to ECD.&lt;/li&gt;
