Book Synopsis The Child's Creation of A Pictorial World by : Claire Golomb
Download or read book The Child's Creation of A Pictorial World written by Claire Golomb and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2003-10-17 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book places child art within the broader context of children's creative intelligence and intrinsic motivation to invent a pictorial world. It examines the development of drawing and painting from several currently dominant theoretical perspectives. This is followed by an extensive examination of empirical data on the art work of children who are ordinary, talented, emotionally disturbed, and atypically developed due to mental disability or autism. The Child's Creation of a Pictorial World uses a developmental framework that combines theoretical sophistication with rigorous empirical investigations into the mental processes that underlie the child's drawings. It delineates the evolution of forms, the pictorial differentiation of figures and their spatial relations, the role of color in narrative descriptions, and its expressive function. Artistic development across all these dimensions is seen as a meaningful mental activity that serves cognitive, affective, and aesthetic functions.

Children’s Lively Minds is filled with stories about real children exploring schema, followed by reflection and questions about what children might be learning. Schema theory in your work with young children whether you know it or not. Understanding it, putting intention behind it, can help families and teachers ease frustration with young children’s repetitive behavior and allow adults to better support brain development.

Download or read book Nadia Revisited written by Lorna Selfe and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2012-03-29 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book re-examines the case of Nadia, discovered as a child aged six, who had been drawing with phenomenal skill and visual realism from the age of three, despite having autism and severe learning difficulties. The original research was published in 1977 and caused great international interest. Nadia Revisited updates her story and reconsiders the theories that endeavour to explain her extraordinary talent. As well as summarising the central issues from the original case study and presenting her remarkable drawings, the book explains Nadia’s subsequent development and present situation in light of the recent research on autistic spectrum disorders and representational drawing in children. The book also considers the phenomenon of savant syndrome, the condition in which those with autism or other learning disabilities have areas of unusual talent that contrast dramatically with their general functioning. Lorna Selfe uses this single case study to discuss theories of developmental psychology and considers the possible links between prodigious talent and underlying neurological dysfunction. The book is especially valuable for students and teachers of developmental psychology and neuropsychology, education and special education, as well as art and art education. Parents of autistic children or those with related disorders, learning difficulties or special needs will also be interested in the discussions presented in this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book draws attention to the role of the adult in parenting and the cycle of mismanaged experiences displaying a repetitive pattern of adult behaviour generation after generation. It states that unless the adult is willing to open heart and mind, the journey of parenting will continue to assume the repetitive pattern of the same old tired errors. As, there is no formal training for parenting the book appeals to the adult's common sense, work at changes through self reflection and management of emotions to build a healthy, happy relationship with his or her child. The book serves the dual purpose of providing a guide, not solutions on varied, common topics affecting adult lives with young children, and at the sametime, creating awareness for the adult stepping into parenthood or for those working with children. It suggests that adults develop a sense of humour before attempting to manage a child's issue. It's time for self reflection. Get in touch and understand the parent's nature as a child first. In the end, the book guides those willing to open heart and mind to approach their child with an open to suggestions attitude.
