Book excerpt: This is a valuable study of a group of superior children, with an analysis of their physical, mental and educational development, and their practical interests. They were found, on the whole, to show all-round superiority, to come from superior families, and to be capable of richer educational experiences than the usual school curriculum affords. -The Journal of Delinquency, Vol. 7* * * * * From the EDITOR'S INTRODUCTION. It is becoming a commonplace to say that our school system fails to detect and to furnish adequate training for the capable child. A certain doctrine, fortifying itself with the name of democracy, shrinks from the fundamental fact of individual differences and deprecates in the name of equality anything but a uniform treatment of school children. This doctrine is false and is based upon a faulty conception of democracy. The evidence that men are not born equal is conclusive. If, then, the fact of differences-many, varied, and wide-is accepted (as indeed it must be by anyone who approaches the facts with an open mind) then the corrolary that training should be different must also be accepted. Nor does this acceptance of differentiated training relate solely or mainly to gifted children. "The world's best brains fully trained" is only a partial program which should be replaced by the wider program "everybody's brains fully trained." In this monograph the author brings into sharp relief the superior child. The "Child Study" of an earlier day, under the influence of the tendency to specialization which is so generally evident, has been broken up into the intensive study of types of children; and among these none is so attractive as the superior type. Means for detecting children of this type and an analysis of their characteristics are surely important educational considerations. "To do justice to superiority we must understand it." The reader will seek and find in the following treatment a better understanding of this superiority. Whether it will enable him to do justice to superior children will depend upon his ability to use this knowledge. At any rate, there is no virtue in ignorance. There are gifted children in every school system. The author takes us into one of these systems and describes in minute detail the sort of superior children she found. We do not propose in this introduction to anticipate her in the treatment of her material. One thing, however, stands out in the entire discussion, namely, the all-around superiority of the capable child selected on the basis of intelligence testing. For example, according to the data here presented the superior child is in the matter of interest always at an advantage. He not only has keener and more vitalizing interests, but he has more of them. Moreover, he makes greater effort, is more socially adaptable, and possesses higher qualities of leadership. In short, he is superior. -B. R. Buckingham, Editor.

This book was released on 2015-07-23 with total page 587 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children are already learning at birth, and they develop and learn at a rapid pace in their early years. This provides a critical foundation for lifelong progress, and the adults who provide for the care and the education of young children bear a great responsibility for their health, development, and learning. Despite the fact that they share the same objective - to nurture young children and secure their future success - the various practitioners who contribute to the care and the education of children from birth through age 8 are not acknowledged as a workforce unified by the common knowledge and competencies needed to do their jobs well. Transforming the Workforce for Children Birth Through Age 8 explores the science of child development, particularly looking at implications for the professionals who work with children. This report examines the current capacities and practices of the workforce, the settings in which they work, the policies and infrastructure that set qualifications and provide professional learning, and the government agencies and other funders who support and oversee these systems. This book then makes recommendations to improve the quality of professional practice and the practice environment for care and education professionals. These detailed recommendations create a blueprint for action that builds on a unifying foundation of child development and early learning, shared knowledge and competencies for care and education professionals, and principles for effective professional learning. Young children thrive and learn best when they have secure, positive relationships with adults who are knowledgeable about how to support their development and learning and are responsive to their individual progress. Transforming the Workforce for Children Birth Through Age 8 offers guidance on system changes to improve the quality of professional practice, specific actions to improve professional learning systems and workforce development, and research to continue to build the knowledge base in ways that will directly advance and inform future actions. The recommendations of this book provide an opportunity to improve the quality of the care and the education that children receive, and ultimately improve outcomes for children.
