{"product_id":"active-learning-from-infancy-to-megan-m-saylor-9783030083915","title":"Active Learning from Infancy to Childhood: Social Motivation, Cognition, and Linguistic Mechanisms","description":"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. \u003cbr\u003eTopics featured in this book include: \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInfants' active role in language learning.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe process of active word learning.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnderstanding when and how explanation promotes exploration.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow conversations with parents can affect children's word associations.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvidence evaluation for active learning and teaching in early childhood.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBilingual children and their role as language brokers for their parents.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ci\u003eActive Learning from Infancy to Childhood\u003c\/i\u003e is a must-have resource for researchers, clinicians and related professionals, and graduate students in developmental psychology, psycholinguistics, educational psychology, and early childhood education. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Megan M.
