Answer to Question 1

Students should cite low teacher-student ratios, a wide variety of materials that help
develop fine and gross motor skills and that challenge children intellectually, a
curriculum that emphasizes cognitive goals rather than behavioral management,
and teachers with training in early childhood education.

Answer to Question 2

Answers should directly compare the thinking of Piaget and Vygotsky, especially
their disagreement about how learning occurs (genetically programmed as opposed
to socially and culturally driven; individual as opposed to guided). It is important that
students cite relevant examples from their own personal experience as well as
examples from research may be found in the book.
