About the Author:
Morrison, Early Childhood Education Today, 10e
Comprehensive coverage. The 10th edition provides the broad, comprehensive coverage that users expect. This is the only book of its kind to provide chapters on child care and federal legislation while also offering foundational chapters and developmental chapters on infants through eight-year-olds. Readers gain a sense of not only the field today and its current issues, but also what young children are like and how to work with them as professionals.
New Early Childhood Settings and Approaches DVD. Today’s visual students demand today’s technology. A DVD with eight videos illustrating key early childhood settings and approaches is included with every copy of this text. Video references in the marginsof the book also link book content to video content. As students read about Reggio Emilia, Head Start, or infant/toddler classrooms, students, and teachers, they can see them on the videos and deepen their understanding of the book’s content and what it takes to be an early childhood professional.
More Useful Than Ever. A focus on adding more useful, "how-to" strategies and guidelines has resulted in a much more applied book. New Competency Builder features, with clear step-by-step instructions, build competence and confidence in today’s early childhood professionals. Students need to know how to build portfolios, observe children, create lesson plans, document learning, and support English language learners, and these features helps them learn to do these key tasks and more. A new Ethical Dilemma at the end of every chapter help readers learn to make important professional decisions based on NAEYC’s revised Code of Ethical Conduct.
