The aim of this teaching resource is to instruct learners in a systematic approach to critical and quality observation of normal childhood development. 

• Each video contains real life assessments of children aged between 10 months and 52 months in an informal clinic setting. Assessments are conducted by Dr Clare Cunningham, Consultant Paediatrician (retired), Sydney Children’s Hospital.
• The observational skills taught are by no means meant to replace the use of formal developmental screeners or assessment tools should this be indicated but can be used as part of a comprehensive clinical assessment of any young child, or as a preliminary test to determine if further assessment is required. Nor does it provide an exhaustive list of milestones at each age. Rather, the resource teaches skills in the observation of children during play/interaction with the carer/examiner that can be applied to any outpatient or rooms setting.
• To aid learning, 3 documents are also available to download (see below):  Summary of development; Pre- and Post Teaching Assessment worksheet for students; and Pre- and Post-teaching Assessment Model Answers.

PENNSW has developed an e-learning educational resource regarding the approach to a first unprovoked seizure for paediatricians and trainees in paediatrics.

The learning may be counted towards the Royal Australasian College of Physicians (RACP) Continuing Professional Development (CPD) requirements. A single certificate is available after completion of the e-learning modules and the associated brief knowledge assessment.

The course explores the following topics:

• Analysis of paroxysmal events: seizure versus non-seizure
• Analysis of seizure: provoked versus non-provoked
• Definitions and recurrence
• Safety and risks
• Investigations
• Syndromal diagnosis
• Treatment and management options
