This book unites research and theoretical work that addresses
the relations between social interaction and the development of
children's understanding. Contributors present and discuss research
on the roles adults and/or peers play in children's development.
They report results of research on social interaction and the
development of preschool-aged and elementary school children's
understanding in areas such as: use of metacognitive strategies,
understanding of social events, moral and affective development,
use of planning skills, knowledge of social conventions, and
development of play interests. Across all contexts, the role of
others is discussed as providing support, direction, or challenge
for children's developing understanding. Changes in children's
understanding, in turn, simultaneously inform interactional
adjustments by both children and others. It is the recognition and
consideration of this complementary relationsip between developing
understanding and organization of social interactions that provies
the volume's unifying theme.
