For courses in Early Childhood Development and Child Development This package includes the loose-leaf version and MyLab Education with Enhanced Pearson eText. This widely-used text discusses major development theories as they relate to physical, social and emotional, and cognitive domains, and contains extensive applications for those who teach and work with young children, making it particularly appropriate for early childhood education programs. This widely used text discusses major development theories as they relate to physical, social and emotional, and cognitive domains, and contains extensive applications for teaching and working with young children. It provides students of child development with a sound knowledge base of current theory and research in the field of early childhood growth, development, and learning and its translation into practice in the daily lives of very young children. Time-honored theories of child development are discussed and applied to current knowledge about how children develop and learn, and contemporary theories, such as Cognitive (Core Systems and Neoconstructivism) and Contextual theories (Dynamic Systems and Relationship-Based Theories) are included. The authors apply theories and the supporting research based on these theories to Early Childhood Education practices in the classroom and with families. After presenting a concise overview of early childhood development and discussions of the family before birth, the book covers the perceptual, motor, physical, emotional and social, and cognitive, language, and literacy development from infancy through ages one through two, three through four, and five through eight. In each chapter, charts and boxed material amplify concepts and emphasize specific issues; margin notes define new or unfamiliar terms; Review Strategies and Activities present relevant, hands-on suggestions, field experiences, and reflective exercises; and Further Readings along with relevant Web sites and other print or electronic resources provide additional learning opportunities. A full Glossary at the end of the text provides reference to terms presented in the book, and a helpful Appendix provides acronyms associated with childhood-related terms, agencies, and associations. The new edition features a strong emphasis on the application of information, examples of early learning guidelines and outcome standards, new Meeting the Needs of All Children sections, complete updating throughout, and video exercises and a policy video/question for applying knowledge.
