The Young Child In Context By Marike W. De Witt
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
Every child constantly changes and undergoes processes of emotional and physical development. At each age and stage of development children need continued support and assurance from adults in order to assimilate the effects of these changes. The pace of the child's development and its outcome are determined by both genetic factors and the influence of the environment. The young child in context: a thematic approach - perspectives from educational psychology and sociopedagogics examines the complex yet clearly defined phases in child development and how best to encourage and assist children through the formative first nine years of their lives. The young child in context follows two different perspectives on the development of the young child: psychological and social educational. Each chapter provides definitions of concepts, and questions and field assignments related to the topics covered. Issues are discussed within a South African context. Contents include the following: * Influence of heredity and the environment on the child's development * Progress of language and speech development * Acquisition of an own identity * Value and implementation of discipline * Children's play and the formation of social relationships * Family and its influence * Effect of mass media and urban living * Deprivation, neglect and sexual molestation The young child in context is aimed at researchers and subject specialists interested in early childhood.
