Profiles and Records of Achievement: A Review of Issues and Practice

Organizing content into six domains of personality functioning (dispositional, biological, intrapsychic, cognitive/experiential, social and cultural, and adjustment), this text interweaves contemporary research with classic and modern theories within the context of each of the domains. This unique framework encourages students to view the "whole person" as the sum of influences and effects of each of the domains of personality functioning. The second edition includes the latest research, as well as a restructuring of material, and continues to bring the subject to life by incorporating a vivid, four-color design.

Glatter, Ron

Belief in the benefits young children derive from nursery education remains largely subordinate to the belief that young children should spend the majority of their time at home with their mothers. However in the next decade it is likely that more women will be encouraged to participate in the workforce. Will current discussions and policies result in day-care expansion as a response to the needs of industry, rather than those of the children and their families? Or will parents take this opportunity to demand a good "care" and "education" system for their under fives, and for under fives of their future - an educare system? Tricia David examines the historical and social factors which have acted as brakes on the development of comprehensive and coordinated pre-school provision. She explores the issues which must be addressed in ensuring that equality of opportunity begins with the under-fives, the importance of continuity, the formation of attachments and the roles of parents and pre-school workers.
