Disadvantaged Child. Volume 2: Head Start and Early Intervention.
Hellmuth, Jerome, Ed.
The second volume of "The Disadvantaged Child" is devoted to Project Headstart and to early childhood in general. The 20 chapters discuss genetic and environmental theories relevant to educational practice, problems of educational assessment, the relation of health and nutrition to development and learning, language development, and methodological concerns in evaluating Headstart. Also included are descriptions of various Headstart programs, reports of promising trends, and discussions of teaching materials and controlled environments. An introduction offers an interpretative perspective on the contents of the volume. For an abstract of Volume 1, see UD 003 754. (NH)
