Book Description
Lo scopo della psicologia dello sviluppo è descrivere e spiegare i cambiamenti nel comportamento e nelle attività psicologiche dal periodo prenatale fino alla vecchiaia. Il volume affronta in modo approfondito i principali temi della psicologia dello sviluppo dal periodo prenatale fino alla vecchiaia, esaminandone sia gli aspetti biologici che quelli culturali. Nel testo sono presentate le più importanti teorie dello sviluppo in una prospettiva storica e, in particolare, quelle di Piaget, Vygotskij e Bowlby, che permettono di comprendere gli orientamenti della ricerca contemporanea e forniscono una sintesi moderna rispetto alle radicali posizioni innatiste e ambientaliste. Il testo presenta inoltre recenti ipotesi, sostenute da evidenze sperimentali, che hanno portato a parziali revisioni di queste teorie. Il volume fornisce in tal modo una visione complessiva e aggiornata delle questioni teoriche e metodologiche più rilevanti della psicologia dello sviluppo ed è consigliato per studenti universitari, insegnanti, operatori del settore, genitori e per tutti coloro che sono interessati a questa disciplina. l curatore di questa edizione ha inoltre apportato integrazioni e adattamenti specifici per il pubblico italiano. A tal fine, sono state anche illustrate recenti ricerche italiane rilevanti per i temi trattati nel testo.

Book Description
As the world becomes increasingly more interconnected and globalized, increasingly more families are seeking early (0-6 years) foreign and second language education, prompting educators and teachers to seek out age-appropriate tools which offer an innovative approach to early language learning (ELL). The Multilingual and Intercultural Puppet tries to answer two questions: How can we introduce children to foreign languages at an early age in a natural and also naturally playful way? And with which approach? This book presents a documented reflection that is rooted in concrete experiences which the authors have accumulated over the past twenty years of field-work, providing readers with many innovative yet practical and operational examples of how puppets have been used to facilitate ELL. Puppets, easily integrated into chilren’s natural play environment, represent a pedagogical tool par excellence for the teaching-learning of foreign languages. Using puppets, educators can create stimulating and enriching learning contexts, engaging children and moving them towards educational learning objectives, very naturally and through active and interactive play. Moreover, puppets, being puppets, can speak various languages, experience various life-events, and share these with young learners, be they homogeneous, heterogeneous, international, transcultural and/or intercultural groups. Indeed, “the language of puppets” is naturally multilingual and intercultural.
