Opis: Child Development and Education - Jeanne Ellis Ormrod, Teresa McDevitt

Child Development and Education bridges the gap between theory and practice, showing those who teach and care for infants, children, and adolescents how to apply developmental research and theory to everyday practice. More so than any other text, Child Development and Education not only describes developmental phenomena--for infants through late adolescence--but also faciliates observations of and analyses of what children say, do, and create, ensuring that educators can make informed decisions that meet children's and adolescent's needs. New to the fifth edition is a sensitivity to the cultural and bioecological nature of development. New features of the text situate children and adolescents in the contexts of their upbringing and articulate the implications of these experiences for educators and other professionals. Illustrated is the diverse nature of development and how it is influenced by social, environmental, and cultural contexts. Also new to this edition is support for teacher licensure preparation. Teacher candidates are alerted to developmental concepts and theorists they need to know, and are provided practice test questions and case studies to review, demonstrating for them how to prepare for their licensure exam.Part 1: Foundations in Child Development Chapter 1: Making a Difference in the Lives of Children and Adolescents Chapter 2: Using Research to Understand Children and Adolescents Chapter 3: Family, Culture, and Community Part 2: Biological Development Chapter 4: Biological Beginnings Chapter 5: Physical Development Part 3: Cognitive Development Chapter 6: Cognitive Development: Piaget and Vygotsky Chapter 7: Cognitive Development: Cognitive Processes Chapter 8: Intelligence Chapter 9: Language Development Chapter 10: Development in the Academic Domains Part 4: Social and Emotional Development Chapter 11: Emotional Development Chapter 12: Development of Self and Social Understandings Chapter 13: Development of Motivation and Self-Regulation Chapter 14: Moral Development Chapter 15: Peers, Schools, and Society
