{"product_id":"conceptual-structure-in-childhood-and-christine-howe-9781138647893","title":"Conceptual Structure in Childhood and Adolescence: The Case of Everyday Physics","description":"\u003cp\u003e'Heat breaks up charcoal and puts sulphur dioxide in'; 'The air pulls faster on heavy masses.' These and other similar statements by school-aged children untutored in physics carry two messages. First, children's pre-instructional conceptions of the physical world are a far cry from the received wisdom of science; second, despite their lack of orthodoxy, children's conceptions carry a definite sense of causal mechanism. This sense of mechanism is the focal concern of this book, originally published in 1998, for it raises issues of central importance to both psychological theory and educational practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christine Howe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138647896\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138647893\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/05\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.16lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"Christine Howe","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48622042841343,"sku":"9781138647893","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/conceptual-structure-in-childhood-and-christine-howe-9781138647893","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
