Synopsis

Inspired by the work of developmental psychologist Dr. Harold Stevenson, this book advances an important scientific agenda: sharing and integrating expert knowledge about children's development and schooling around the world. A sometimes controversial and always vital subject of concern among educators, mathematical learning skills and performance constitute a major area of focus, including the identification of effective teaching techniques associated with high mathematics achievement. Literacy, from preschool to long-term retention after formal schooling ends, receives a similarly multinational reinterpretation and analysis. Readers searching for the latest thinking on these topics should find provocative discussions of cultural and cross-national academic performance and schooling as well as developmental aspects of learning, literacy and numeracy.
