Developmentally Appropriate and Culturally
Responsive Education: Theory in Practice

Rebecca Novick, Ph.D.
April 1996

Early childhood education has undergone significant change over the past decade, due largely to the influence of developmentally appropriate practice. This publication is a synthesis of relevant literature, providing an overview of developmentally and culturally appropriate practices and the next steps in the on-going work of the Laboratory's Child and Family Program. It includes sections on integrated curriculum, multiple intelligences, multiage grouping, culturally responsive teaching, and family-school-community partnerships, among others.

Developmentally Appropriate and Culturally Responsive Education: Theory in Practice is available online at http://www.nwrel.org/cfc/publications/dap2.html.
