Based on ten years of cross-cultural practice and research
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
In Working With Linguistically And Culturally Different Children: Innovative Clinical And Educational Approaches, Sharon-ann Gopaul-McNicol and Tania Thomas-Presswood offer a comprehensive, eclectic approach to assessment, treatment, teaching, consultation, and research with culturally diverse children. Based on ten years of cross-cultural practice and research with children of various linguistic and cultural backgrounds, their underlying philosophy is that to successfully intervene with a culturally divers child, a therapist or educator must understand the values and beliefs inherent in the child's cultural upbringing and must utilize intervention and educational strategies that are culturally sensitive. Many strategies and models are describe in enough detail to enable a mental health or educational professional to put them into immediate practice and application. Working With Linguistically And Culturally Different Children is an important, original, seminal, scholarly, benchmark publication that should be included in every academic library reference collection on working with culturally diverse children within a clinical or an educational setting.
