Описание: For over five hundred years, Muslim dynasties ruled parts of northern and central India. Scholars have long drawn upon works written in Persian and Arabic about this epoch, yet they have neglected the many histories that India`s learned elite wrote about Indo-Muslim rule in Sanskrit. Audrey Truschke offers a groundbreaking analysis of these texts.

Описание:
'Heat breaks up charcoal and puts sulphur dioxide in'; 'The air pulls faster on heavy masses.' These and other similar statements by school-aged children untutored in physics carry two messages. First, children's pre-instructional conceptions of the physical world are a far cry from the received wisdom of science; second, despite their lack of orthodoxy, children's conceptions carry a definite sense of causal mechanism. This sense of mechanism is the focal concern of this book, originally published in 1998, for it raises issues of central importance to both psychological theory and educational practice.
In particular, some psychologists have claimed that human cognition is organised around causal mechanisms along the lines of a theory. This carries specific implications for teaching. Does the existence in children's thinking of causal mechanisms relating to the physical world support these psychologists? Does this have consequences for the teaching of science?
Christine Howe reviews evidence relating to pre-instructional conceptions in three broad topic areas: heat and temperature; force and motion; floating and sinking. A wide range of published work is discussed, including the author's own research. In addition, a new study covering all three topic areas is reported for the first time. The message is that causal mechanisms can indeed play an organising role, that untutored cognition can in other words be genuinely theoretical. However, this tendency is highly domain-specific, occurring in some topic areas but not in others.
Having drawn these conclusions, Christine Howe discusses their meaning in terms of both cognitive development and educational practice. A model is outlined which synthesises Piagetian action-groundedness with Vygotskyan cultural-symbolism and has a distinctive message for classrooms. This title will be useful to cognitive and developmental psychologists and to science educators alike.

Описание:
The book will serve as a helpful reference for undergraduate and post-graduate students of Psychology and Education. Understanding the nature of a child or learner, the context in which they live and grow, and building perspective on the process of development forms the basic framework for all courses in Education. This book focuses on human development and diversity as the dominant themes that cut across early, middle and late childhood, and adolescence, which in turn correspond to the pre-primary, primary, secondary and senior secondary levels of schooling. Understanding Childhood and Adolescence links existing theories in educational psychology with concerns of contemporary Indian society. It covers early childhood care and education; socio-cultural, philosophical, and psychological perspectives on childhood and adolescence; contemporary lifestyle changes affecting these life-stages; and concerns of diversity ranging from multilingualism, gender, to intelligence and development of self and identity. The textually informative chapters cover the historical trajectory and important theories of each life-stage, and raise relevant debates and issues related to each of them. Key Features: • Looks at childhood and adolescence from multiple contours such as developmental aspects, issues, trends, challenges, interface with society, its institutions and policy provisions
• Traces historical evolution of the basic concepts and contextualizes these to the Indian socio-cultural milieu through examples and cases • Discusses key concepts related to compulsory foundational courses in development and diversity in all teacher education programmes • Contains mid-chapter exercises and chapter-end questions to help readers check their understanding as well as reflect on issues in teaching–learning processes
Описание: This brand new textbook on child and adolescent development reflects a scientist’s understanding of key research, a psychologist’s understanding of people, and a teacher’s understanding of students. It features significant new findings, a broad-based global perspective, and enhanced media offerings. With all of this, the book itself is at just the right length and level of coverage to fit comfortably in a single-term, undergraduate-level Developmental Psychology course. With its clear presentation and integration of detailed real-world examples, this acclaimed core textbook accessibly illustrates the relevance of social sciences research without sacrificing key content. This book can be purchased with the breakthrough online resource, LaunchPad, which offers innovative media content, curated and organised for easy assignability. LaunchPad's intuitive interface presents quizzing, flashcards, animations and much more to make learning actively engaging.

Описание: Governments around the world have given priority to "early intervention," i.e. the early diagnosis and treatment of young adults with psychotic symptoms.
One of the main problems with this approach, is that only a small proportion of these young adults can be expected to go on to develop schizophrenia, yet all the treatment regimes are derived from work with adults who have had full psychotic episodes.
Why Does Schizophrenia Develop at Late Adolescence? proposes a controversial new model of how schizophrenia develops in late adolescence and presents clinical material aimed at influencing the way psychosis is treated, building on a state-of-the-art reassessment of the field.
A major reconceptualisation of how schizophrenia develops
A controversial approach
Early intervention programmes are now extremely widespread, so there is much interest in the area and how best to treat this serious psychotic disorder
Описание: Chronologically organized,this book presents topics within the field of child development through unique and highly engaging active learning opportunities.
