The Development of Children and Adolescents, by Penny Hauser-Cram,
J. Kevin Nugent, Kathleen Thies, and John F. Travers, provides an
integrated view of child development. Presenting the most pertinent
research for each developmental stage and linking this to practical
applications in the areas of Parenting, Policy, and Practice, this
balanced approach emphasizes the relationship between research and
theory and applications. The rich media program, including WileyPLUS
with Real Development promotes active learning and allows for increased
understanding and comprehension of the course content. Real Development,
authored by Nicole Barnes, Ph.D., Montclair State University and
Christine Hatchard, Psy.D., Monmouth University, uses authentic video
showcasing real families, along with activities and assessments that put
students in the place of a professional, to gain an understanding of key
concepts. Through the combination of text and media, students are
engaged in meaningful learning that deepens and enriches their
understanding of developmental concepts.
