Download or read book The Handbook of the Study of Play written by James E. Johnson and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-02-05 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Handbook of the Study of Play brings together in two volumes thinkers whose diverse interests at the leading edge of scholarship and practice define the current field. Because play is an activity that humans have shared across time, place, and culture and in their personal developmental timelines—and because this behavior stretches deep into the evolutionary past—no single discipline can lay claim to exclusive rights to study the subject. Thus this handbook features the thinking of evolutionary psychologists; ethologists and biologists; neuroscientists; developmental psychologists; psychotherapists and play therapists; historians; sociologists and anthropologists; cultural psychologists; philosophers; theorists of music, performance, and dance; specialists in learning and language acquisition; and playground designers. Together, but out of their varied understandings, the incisive contributions to The Handbook take on vital questions of educational policy, of literacy, of fitness, of the role of play in brain development, of spontaneity and pleasure, of well-being and happiness, of fairness, and of the fuller realization of the self. These volumes also comprise an intellectual history, retrospective looks at the great thinkers who have made possible the modern study of play.

Download or read book Language in Action written by Riikka Alanen and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2021-02-10 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Russian psychologist L. S. Vygotsky (1896–1934) has been one of the central figures in the recent shift from the cognitive to the social and the cultural in educational and psychological research. A. N. Leontiev’s (1903–1979) activity theory has had a similar impact in the West. A. A. Leontiev’s (1936–2004) psycholinguistic theories have also started to attract increasing attention. The ideas of these scholars have also made their mark on second and foreign language learning research outside Russia. However, there is no one widely accepted, monolithic Vygotskian or Leontievian theory. Furthermore, the nature and role of language in action and activity remain open for debate. This edited volume presents 19 chapters bringing together different views from a number of disciplines for a critical analysis and reappraisal of the relationship between language and action. The topics range from theoretical and methodological issues related to sociocultural and activity theoretical views of language to empirical research reports on classroom interaction, identity, language assessment, teacher education and second and foreign language learning. The overall aim of Language in Action: Vygotsky and Leontievian Legacy Today is to shed light on the nature of human action and activity and the role that language has in mediating and shaping what we think, do, and learn. At the same time, the book serves as a showcase of different socially oriented approaches to the study of what we as human beings are and what we do with language.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revisionist Revolution in Vygotsky Studies brings together recent critical investigations which examine historical and textual inaccuracies associated with received understandings of Vygotsky’s work. By deconstructing the Vygotskian narrative, the authors debunk the 'cult of Vygotsky', allowing for a new, exciting interpretation of the logic and direction of his theory. The chapters cover a number of important themes, including: The chronology of Vygotsky’s ideas and theory development, and the main core of his theoretical writings Relationships between Vygotskians and their Western colleagues The international reception of Vygotskian psychology and problems of translation The future development of Vygotskian science Using Vygotsky’s published and unpublished writings the authors present a detailed historical understanding of Vygotsky’s thought, and the circumstances in which he worked. It includes coverage of the organization of academic psychology in the Soviet Union, the network of scholars associated with Vygotsky in the interwar period, and the assumed publication ban on Vygotsky’s writings. This volume is the first to provide an overview of revisionist studies of Vygotsky’s work, and is the product of close international collaboration between revisionist scholars. It will be an essential contribution to Vygotskian scholarship, and of great interest to researchers in the history of psychology, history of science, Soviet/Russian history, philosophical psychology and philosophy of science.

Download or read book The Ecology of Human Development written by Urie BRONFENBRENNER and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-30 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is a book that challenges the very basis of the way psychologists have studied child development. According to Urie Bronfenbrenner, one of the world's foremost developmental psychologists, laboratory studies of the child's behavior sacrifice too much in order to gain experimental control and analytic rigor. Laboratory observations, he argues, too often lead to "the science of the strange behavior of children in strange situations with strange adults for the briefest possible periods of time." To understand the way children actually develop, Bronfenbrenner believes that it will be necessary to observe their behavior in natural settings, while they are interacting with familiar adults over prolonged periods of time. This book offers an important blueprint for constructing such a new and ecologically valid psychology of development. The blueprint includes a complete conceptual framework for analysing the layers of the environment that have a formative influence on the child. This framework is applied to a variety of settings in which children commonly develop, ranging from the pediatric ward to daycare, school, and various family configurations. The result is a rich set of hypotheses about the developmental consequences of various types of environments. Where current research bears on these hypotheses, Bronfenbrenner marshals the data to show how an ecological theory can be tested. Where no relevant data exist, he suggests new and interesting ecological experiments that might be undertaken to resolve current unknowns. Bronfenbrenner's groundbreaking program for reform in developmental psychology is certain to be controversial. His argument flies in the face of standard psychological procedures and challenges psychology to become more relevant to the ways in which children actually develop. It is a challenge psychology can ill-afford to ignore.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BACOMET cannot be evaluated solely on the basis of its publications. It is important then that the reader, with only this volume on which to judge both the BACOMET activities and its major outcome to date, should know some thing of what preceded this book's publication. For it is the story of how a group of educators, mainly tutors of student-teachers of mathematics, com mitted themselves to a continuing period of work and self-education. The concept of BACOMET developed during a series of meetings held in 1978-79 between the three editors, Bent Christiansen, Geoffrey Howson and Michael Otte, at which we expressed our concern about the contributions from mathematics education as a discipline to teacher education, both as we observed it and as we participated in it. The short time which was at the teacher-educator's disposal, allied to the limited knowledge and experience of the students on which one had to build, raised puzzling problems concerning priorities and emphases. The recognition that these problems were shared by educators from many different countries was matched by the fact that it would be fruitless to attempt to search for an internationally (or even nationally) acceptable solution to our problems. Different contexts and traditions rule this out.

This book was released on 2023-02-25 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A feature of modern educational technologies is thought out in every detail a model of joint pedagogical activity on design, organization and carrying out the educational process with the provision of comfortable conditions for both the children and the teacher. In this context, it becomes important use of diagnostic tools by a correctional teacher. According to research, diagnostics is a necessary component of practical activity, and teachers need a certain clarification regarding the differentiation of diagnostic contents and functions in psychological and pedagogical aspects. It is this actual problem that is highlighted in this monograph. In particular, the main features and peculiarities of the diagnostic activity of the correctional teacher in working with children of early, preschool and school age with and without psychophysical development disorders are revealed. Pedagogical diagnosis of a correctional teacher is defined as activities to identify the current state and areas of immediate development child; team pedagogical interaction aimed at management of educational process’ quality. The diagnostic activity of a correctional teacher requires formation a high level of multifunctional competence, which, in turn, includes the following: - the algorithm of the process of examining the psychophysical development of children with developmental disorders; - the level of formation of social and adaptive skills, life skills competence; - feedback during the joint activity of an adult and a child. Objects of pedagogical diagnostics are considered to be: - individual and personal qualities of the child; - activity, behavior and attitude of pupils; - the formative influence of the social environment, family, school and class environment; - the nature and interaction of pedagogical influence in the educational process. To obtain pedagogical data, one of the most important tasks is the right choice of diagnostic methods. Most often the following methods are used by teachers during diagnosis: 1. Observation. 2. Questionnaires and surveys. 3. Testing. 4. Conversations. 5. Learning and education in pedagogical situations. 6. Study of products of activity (drawings, projects, diaries, etc.). 7. Generalization of pupils’ independent characteristics. With a psychodiagnostic approach to research the children’s psychologist has the following tasks: 1) study of the functions of mental processes and detection of deviations; 2) determination of the possibility of improving the results during provision assistance; 3) diagnosis of the child’s personal characteristics; 4) correlation of the obtained results with “normative” and establishing a pathopsychological diagnosis; 5) determination of opportunities for optimization of the child’s development process and ways of solving his social problems
