Emotional Growth and Learning

An appreciation of the processes in social interactions and relationships which influence emotional growth and learning is important for work with all children, especially those who are troubled. A timely contribution to the debate on work with children experiencing emotional and behavioural difficulties, Emotional Growth and Learning clarifies these processes and serves as a practical and theoretical resource for the training of teachers and other professionals. Paul Greenhalgh illustrates the relevant psychological concepts, with examples drawn from his own experience, and provides individual and group exercises which help adults to explore the nature of their own participation in the growth and learning processes. The book's multi-disciplinary approach and accessible style will appeal to teachers in mainstream and special schools, researchers and professionals in related fields, as well as to parents.Greenhalgh, Paul is the author of 'Emotional Growth and Learning' with ISBN 9780415101349 and ISBN 0415101344.
