Theories of Childhood : An introduction to Dewey, Montessori, Erikson, Paiget and Vygotsky - restricted title

order quantity

NZ$ 40.00 each

Paperback

Author: Carol Garhart Mooney

Published by: Prentice Hall

In Stock: 0

Restricted title in New Zealand.

An intensive look at the ideas of five groundbreaking educational theorists, Theories of Childhood examines the work of John Dewey, Maria Montessori, Erik Erikson, Jean Piaget, and Lev Vygotsky in relation to early childhood care. An easy-to-learn overview of the theorist opens each chapter. Author Carol Garhart Mooney then distills their work to reveal how it relates to child care and children. Dewey examines the relationship of curriculum to life; Montessori, the need for carefully prepared classroom environments; Erikson, an approach to making children healthy and comfortable; Piaget, the knowledge of children's thought processes; and Vygotsky, the importance of teachers and peers in learning. Perfect for undergraduate programs, community college courses, training workshops, or to help keep your staff aware of the theory behind good child care practice.
