UW–Madison’s Elizabeth Graue is a co-editor of a newly released book titled, “Scientific Influences on Early Childhood Education: From Diverse Perspectives to Common Practices.”
A preview of the book explains how it “offers a new framework for examining the diverse scientific perspectives that shape early childhood education.”
The preview adds: “As the field takes on an increasing role in addressing children’s educational, developmental, and environmental needs, it is critical to more fully understand and appreciate the diverse scientific roots of contemporary early childhood education. This edited collection brings together leading researchers to explain and unpack perspectives that are not often associated with early childhood education, yet have made significant contributions to its development and evolution.”
Graue is the Sorenson Professor of Early Childhood Education with the School of Education’s No. 1-ranked Department of Curriculum and Instruction. She also is director of the Center for Research on Early Childhood Education (CRECE). “Scientific Influences on Early Childhood Education” is co-edited by Dominic F. Gullo, a professor of early childhood education and director of The Lisa and John McNichol Early Childhood Education Lab at Drexel University.
