"Edward Deci, one of the country's outstanding social psychologists, writing with former New York Times science and health editor Richard Flaste, offers some bad news and some good news: Rewards and punishments do not make workers perform more effectively, or students learn better, or families function more smoothly - that's the bad news. Indeed, it is the deadening of interest and commitment, from too much control, from overreliance on rewards and threats, that keeps people from peak performance." "But the good news is that people have an innate energy, interest, and excitement about the world that can be encouraged, and when they find greater satisfaction in what they do, they are more effective. Deci shows us how people work more efficiently, learn more intelligently, and treat each other better when their sense of autonomy is encouraged. Give students the reasons why they need to learn something boring, bring workers into the decision process whenever possible, avoid the use of threats, and amazing results will ensue, because people are inherently interested in the world, and they perform optimally when their autonomy is supported. While this good news is a call for autonomy, it is not a call for anarchy. People need limits and structure, but the way these are provided makes all the difference. Reading this book will revolutionize the way we think about motivation - and will give readers insight into what makes us tick."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Finding a way to encourage preschoolers and elementary school children to behave well without resorting to scolding, threats, or bribery is a parent's number one challenge. In Rewards for Kids! psychologist and child-development expert Dr. Virginia M. Shiller explains why it works to "catch them doing something good." Reward, not bribery, is the key. Dr. Shiller shows parents how to use a variety of child-friendly sticker charts and other tools to help children improve their behavior. This proven positive-parenting technique has been used to help kids overcome such common behavior problems as bedtime procrastination, doing chores, getting along with siblings or friends, getting ready for school and other events on time, and completing homework without fuss. In clear, easy steps, parents will learn creative ways to change their children's problem behavior using an individualized plan that will help children feel good about their new accomplishments. Along the way, Dr. Shiller communicates a great depth of understanding about the needs of children and the many ways of engaging them. The numerous pull-out charts, awards, and certificates are designed to appeal to boys and girls of different ages, ensure plenty of variety, and can be personalized by coloring and decorating them with photos and stickers. This book can make disciplining kids effectively both constructive and fun.

This stimulating volume assembles leading scholars to address issues in children’s cognitive, academic, and social development through the lens of evolutionary psychology.Debates and controversies in the field highlight the potential value of this understanding, from basic early learning skills through emerging social relationships in adolescence, with implications for academic outcomes, curriculum development, and education policy.Children’s evolved tendency toward play and exploration fuels an extended discussion on child- versus adult-directed learning, evolutionary bases are examined for young learners’ moral development, and contemporary theories of learning and memory are viewed from an evolutionary perspective.Along the way, contributors’ recommendations illustrate real-world uses of evolution-based learning interventions during key developmental years. Among the topics covered: The adaptive value of cognitive immaturity: applications of evolutionary developmental psychology to early education Guided play: a solution to the play versus learning dichotomy Adolescent bullying in schools: an evolutionary perspective Fairness: what it isn’t, what it is, and what it might be for Adapting evolution education to a warming climate of teaching and learning The effects of an evolution-informed school environment on student performance and wellbeing Evolutionary Perspectives on Child Development and Education will interest researchers and graduate students working in diverse areas such as evolutionary psychology, cultural anthropology, human ecology, developmental psychology, and educational psychology. Researchers in applied developmental science and early education will also find it useful.
