For courses in Child Development
Experience the wonder of the childhood journey
RevelTM The Dynamic Child affords students a hands-on way to virtually experience child development as they learn, and to experience the wonder of a child growing before their eyes.
Frank Manis, author and creator of MyVirtualChild, applies the principles of anchored instruction to combine his best-selling technology for child development courses with a compelling, original narrative. By enabling students to make virtual parenting decisions as they engage with developmental systems theories and interactive media, Revel The Dynamic Child makes contemporary child development research and theory both comprehensible and deeply meaningful to students. Fully digital and highly engaging, the 2nd Edition offers more thoroughly integrated interactive features as well as a New and Noteworthy feature that will be updated twice yearly with the latest research to keep the learning experience up-to-date.
NOTE: Revel is a fully digital delivery of Pearson content. This ISBN is for the standalone Revel access card. In addition to this access card, you will need a course invite link, provided by your instructor, to register for and use Revel.
