Eliciting Children's Full Potential: Designing & Evaluating Developmentally Based Programs for Young Children

Eliciting Children's Full Potential is an excellent resource for the recreation of high-quality programs for young children ages three to eight that helps readers to develop a deeper understanding of the cognitive-developmental model, including how it is like and unlike other child-centered models and how it links theory with classroom practice; design and implement programs from a cross-cultural, inclusionary perspective, providing intellectual challenge, stimulating creative thinking, and strengthening children's social cognition; and engage in continuous professional growth through a process of positive self- and peer evaluation.
The book also contains classroom vignettes drawn from a wide range of environments; a system for classroom observation; and classroom evaluation instruments.
