Zusatztext "U.S. Child Development Laboratory leaders respond to a call to create a research consortium framed by Applied Developmental Science that takes advantage of CDLs’ unique histories across nearly 100 years as centers of excellence in early education, professional development, and applied research. Through rich examples from local programs, this volume charts the power and possibility of multi-site efforts to confront many of the large questions and issues facing early childhood education today." – Mary Jane Moran, Associate Professor, Department of Child and Family Studies, University of Tennessee"At a time when the relevance and viability of laboratory schools are in question, this volume offers a reconceptualization that enlarges the scope and reach of their work, increases their capacity to impact children, families, practitioners and policy makers, and secures their place on campuses, communities, and the profession." – Cynthia Paris, Associate Professor, Department of Human Development and Family Studies, and Director, Early Childhood Laboratory School, College of Education and Human Development, University of Delaware Informationen zum Autor Nancy E. Barbour, Ph.D., is a Professor of Early Childhood Education in the College of Education at James Madison University. Brent A. McBride, Ph.D., is a Professor of Human Development and Director of the Child Development Laboratory at the University of Illinois at Urbana/Champaign.
