Customer Reviews

Excellent textbook and resource for educators.

This is an excellent textbook and resource for educators that disusses educational philosophies and teaching styles, classroom set ups, frameworks of elementary education, and notable contributors to learning and teachning styles. This textbook is a great reference for elementary teachers.

ECE book

It is a good book, I just wish that I knew it was a teacher's edition.

Excellent Resource For Study For Praxis II

I used this book to study for my Praxis II in early childhood education. It covers every aspect that you need to know in regard to the basic and founding principles and people.I love the way the cite primary resources when talking about Zone of Proximal Development, Maturationist, and Constructivist Models.I passed my Praxis II on the first try with flying colors.

Introduction to Early Childhood Education: Preschool through

This is the first semester I have used this book. It is a fairly comprehensive book for introducing early childhood preservice teachers to EC curriculum. It covers every area of the curriculum with emphasis on the constructivist perspective. Two areas that I find lacking are the index in the book itself and the teacher's supplement. The index is not comprehensive at all, and the suggested test questions in the supplement are often ambiguous and many times not covered in the book.
