Sorry, I really don’t have any good comments on this, because I haven’t had any classes to use it with right now. Maybe later in the fall classes I might be able to use it then.
Thank you.

I have used this text for two years in my Foundations class that I teach at a local college. I personally like the broad scope of information that is contained, but considered the 1997 version outdated from the start..i.e., no brain research; In additon, I do not think the work is well written at all. It is confusing and hard to follow. As an example, he mentions Socrates and Plato, but does not say why (Chapter three, page 62). I could site other examples but “brevity is the soul of wit”! Thanks

I’ve used this book as a reference because of the tremendous amount of information it holds. The information is up to date and presented in a clear way. Early Childhood Education Today is easy to read, comprehend, and utilize as a college student.

I used this book in an Early Childhood Education class at college. The text is very boring and almost impossible to read. There is tons of information in it but very hard to follow. I personally didnt like the book. Definetly not worth the money!
