FOR STUDENTS

Child and Adolescent Development in Your Classroom, Topical Approach

ISBN: 9781305964242
Using a topical approach to cover development from early childhood through adolescence, this book provides future teachers with authentic, research-based strategies and guidelines for their classrooms. The authors apply child development concepts to topics of high interest and relevance to teachers, including classroom discipline, constructivism, social-emotional development and wellbeing, and many others. A strong emphasis on individual and group diversity among children is reflected throughout. Case studies (in the ancillary materials) and real-world vignettes from authentic classroom situations further bridge the distance between research and the classroom. By linking theory, research, and practice -- and emphasizing application -- the book helps to equip teachers with the tools to create an environment that promotes optimal development in children. Also available: the MindTap online learning experience, with videos, applied activities, downloadable resources, and more.
