Informationen zum Autor Edited by Philip M. Brown; Michael W. Corrigan and Ann Higgins-D'Alessandro Klappentext Handbook of Prosocial Education is the definitive theoretical, practical, and policy guide to the prosocial side of education, the necessary second side of the educational coin. Written by highly-respected researchers and outstanding educators, the handbook represents the wide range of research-based prosocial interventions from pre-school through high school. The chapters explore and explain how prosocial education helps teachers create effective classroom learning environments to support the development of the whole child (student), principals encourage positive school climate, and how superintendents improve the health and well-being of their systems. As readers will learn, when done well, prosocial education develops the capacities and competencies of students, teachers, and school administrators that lead to more autonomous, positive self-concept, greater sense of purpose, more socially responsible behaviors, and an increased connections between families, schools, and communities.
