Recenzii

Neuroscience and early childhood! Mine Conkbayir reveals how scientific evidence guided practice make a difference in early years with this second expanded edition. This book, written like the kindness of the honey bees and the hard work of ants, will remain an essential guide for policymakers, early childhood professionals and parents.
What an exciting time to be in the field of supporting our young. In this 2nd edition of Early Childhood and Neuroscience: Theory, Research and Implications for Practice, Mine Conkbayir has expanded her urgent call to transform the way we provide early childhood education. As educators we work with the brains and bodies of children on a daily bases and knowing how stress and adversity impact learning and development is critical to our work. Our ability to effectively teach our students can no longer ignore this critical information. If we want to provide the best possible outcomes for the children we serve and teach this cutting edge work must be integrated into our schools and programs.
Mine Conkbayir's research is timely showing us the importance of investing in the Early Years of child development. The new chapters outline complex ideas in a clear concise manner to help parents, caregivers, early educators, and others to understand and apply the principles to nurture positive outcomes.
In her book, Early Childhood and Neuroscience, Conkbayir, does an excellent job of examining how the brain works as it relates to learning. I found the chapter on self-regulation particularly insightful, as it examined the 5 domains of self-regulation as it relates to early childhood age children. I would highly recommend this book to teachers, researchers, and university students!
This practical guide translates the complex subject of neuroscience ... and distils its implications for practice.
I especially enjoyed the myth-busting sections found throughout the book. I thought this was an excellent addition for readers without a neuroscience background ... I think Early Childhood and Neuroscience offers an excellent summary of a variety of topics for a wide range of readers.
