Synopsis

Understanding how children grow, think, and learn is essential to effective educational practice. Knowledge of developmental stages allows educators to tailor instruction to meet learners' cognitive, emotional, and social needs. Child Development and Educational Practice examines the principles of developmental psychology and their application in classroom settings. The book discusses major theories from Piaget, Vygotsky, and Erikson, linking them to pedagogy, curriculum design, and assessment. It also explores the influence of family, culture, and technology on learning. With its blend of psychology and education, it provides a solid foundation for teachers and practitioners supporting holistic child development.
