Early Childhood Education: Learning Together 1st Edition

by Virginia Casper (Author), Rachel Theilheimer (Author)
4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars 63 ratings
See all formats and editions
Early Childhood Education: Learning Together provides a comprehensive overview of early childhood education. This exciting new text encourages students to understand the need for flexible approaches in their work with children. Early childhood education is not a “one size fits all” proposition, so this text encourages students in multiple ways to reflect upon why they are doing what they are doing. With connections to NAEYC standards, case studies, and essays from real people on the front lines of early childhood education, students will leave the course with a superior foundation in both the theoretical aspects of ECE and the real world applications of those theories.

In developing Early Childhood Education: Learning Together, we bring together the best research and the most effective practices in Early Childhood.

We have heard that many students are using their first Early Childhood course to explore their interest in the field - perhaps to discover a new profession or a second career. These comments shaped every aspect of Early Childhood Education: Learning Together. The resulting textbook is infused with real cases, NAEYC standards, and graphs and tables for easy reference and student review.

We also understand that college can be a financial challenge for students. Because of this, Early Childhood Education: Learning Together is half the price of comparable introductory texts.

I got this for college. It’s what I needed for my class and it’s interesting enough. I was told I needed the 2010 edition. This is the 2009 edition but so far it’s exactly the same and I got it for a lot cheaper.
