Child Development: An Active Learning Approach (3rd edition) – eBook

In the topically organized Child Development: An Active Learning Approach, 3rd Edition (PDF), authors Laura E. Levine and Joyce A. Munsch invite college students to take an active journey toward understanding the latest findings from the field of child development. Using robust pedagogical tools built into the chapter narratives, students are challenged to confront myths and misconceptions, participate in real-world activities with children and independently, and utilize video resources and research tools to pursue knowledge and develop critical thinking skills on their own. This new Third Edition covers the latest findings on developmental neuroscience, positive youth development, the role of fathers, and more, with topics of diversity and culture integrated throughout. More than a textbook, this one-of-a-kind resource will continue to serve students as they go on to graduate studies, to work with children and adolescents professionally, and to care for their own children.

Reviews

“I really like the learning goals and the end-of-chapter summaries. With so much content, it is helpful to have a reminder of the most important points from the chapter at the end.” — Amy M. Claridge

“I appreciated the Active Learning Exercises! Wow. These are probably the best that I have seen for these. I also appreciated the focus on careers and being a good consumer of research…. I was especially impressed with the Test Your Knowledge openers. I could envision myself using these for each chapter as a discussion starter in class.” — Tara M. Stoppa, Ph.D
