- • Modular, Manageable, Meaningful - Feldman’s modular format treats each stage of life and each domain equally throughout the text. With just 10 chapters and 3 modules per chapter, Discovering the Life Span is more manageable for instructors and students. The modular approach also helps instructors easily identify and cover all the concepts they find most essential in lifespan development. Throughout the text, Robert Feldman’s engaging and accessible writing style gives students a meaningful learning experience that helps them relate to and apply content to their personal life.
- • Engages Students - Chapter Opening Prologues grab readers’ attention with an account of an individual who is at the developmental stage covered by the chapter. Incorporated throughout each chapter, From the Perspective of… questions are designed to show the applicability of the material to a variety of professions. End-of-chapter Putting it All Together sections recap the opening prologues and address the three domains of physical, cognitive, and social development. Throughout the text, engaging videos enliven the content, through a diverse collection of clips that include sketchnote-style tutorials as well as cross-cultural footage and real-world interviews featuring real students.
