Career Exploration and Development in Childhood: Perspectives from theory, practice and research
Editat de Mark Watson, Mary McMahonen Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 mai 2018
Divided into five sections that reflect the authors’ perspectives on critical aspects of children’s career development, chapters include relevant research, as well as the practical application of concepts, issues and strategies for career interventions with children. The book includes sequential sections on theory, research, contextual influences, assessment, and the facilitation of career exploration and development. Perspectives from both developed and developing world contexts consider traditional approaches to career education, as well as career development learning in childhood. The collaborations evident in the chapter authorship reflect the significant internationalisation of the field of child career development.
The book synthesises key issues and presents innovative recommendations that will not only enhance our understanding of children’s career development, but will set the agenda for the future of the field. It will be of key interest to researchers, academics and postgraduate students in the fields of career development, career guidance, education, childhood, child development and counselling.

Recenzii
‘Career development is a lifespan process, but to date the early part of the lifespan has received little attention. This book represents a much-needed impetus to change this. Watson and McMahon have assembled a diverse group of scholars to document how childhood experiences serve as precursors of future occupational roles and identities and to review the functions of theory, research, and practice in understanding and facilitating the underlying processes. This book will expand the scope of the field and should be required reading for students of career development and career counselling.’
