This book presents new findings on the role of active learning in
infants' and young children's cognitive and linguistic development.
Chapters discuss evidence-based models, identify possible
neurological mechanisms supporting active learning, pinpoint
children's early understanding of learning, and trace children's
recognition of their own learning. Chapters also address how
children shape their lexicon, covering a range of active learning
practices including interactions with parents, teachers, and peers;
curiosity and exploration during play; seeking information from
other people and their surroundings; and asking questions. In
addition, processes of selective learning are discussed, from
learning new words and trusting others in acquiring information to
weighing evidence and accepting ambiguity. Topics featured in this
book include: Infants' active role in language learning. The
process of active word learning. Understanding when and how
explanation promotes exploration. How conversations with parents
can affect children's word associations. Evidence evaluation for
active learning and teaching in early childhood. Bilingual children
and their role as language brokers for their parents. Active
Learning from Infancy to Childhood is a must-have resource for
researchers, clinicians and related professionals, and graduate
students in developmental psychology, psycholinguistics,
educational psychology, and early childhood education.
