Summary
This hands-on guide for interviewing and observing children in educational settings isa supplement for child development coursestaken by elementary and middle school education majors. It includes a rationale for interviewing and observing children as a way to understand their behavior, learning, and development and makes connections to the work of major developmental theorists and educational researchers.

The guide's organization follows the topical organization of most child development textbooks.
