Change and Development Issues of Theory, Method, and Application
Biography
Eric Amsel, K. Ann Renninger, Ann Renninger
"...the Amsel and Renninger book meets its goals admirably--every chapter is a good read that presents state-of-the-art material to the broad readership in the field. I learned something of value from every chapter."
—Contemporary Psychology"Taken as a whole, the book's chapters make a welcome case for the role of theory in developmental research."
—Child Development Abstracts & Bibliography"...I would like to stress that [the] book implicitly and explicitly offer[s] teaching strategies that are appropriate for learners of all ages. I believe the strategies are useful because of the disciplined theoretical grounding found in the writings which explicate the coherence of the instructional interactions, with attention paid toward cultural and social contexts, explicit and implicit goals of the diverse learning activities, as well as the acute concern that the researchers have for the learning, change, and development of children."
