Programming and Planning in Early Childhood Settings

By: Leonie Arthur,Bronwyn Beecher,Elizabeth Death,Susan Dockett,Sue Farmer

This valuable resource for early childhood education students and practitioners provides a broad view of the concepts and issues in early childhood curriculum. Chapters reflect ongoing discussions about what is meant by the terms 'planning' and 'programming' in the context of early childhood, what is authentic curriculum for young children, and effective teaching strategies to extend young children's learning.

Numerous real-life examples, reflections, articles and case studies assist students to understand a variety of educational theories, philosophies and frameworks.

Normal and Abnormal Swallowing

Imaging in Diagnosis and Therapy

By: Bronwyn Jones

The new edition of the book Normal and Abnormal Swallowing, Second Edition, presents an updated practical approach to the role of imaging in the diagnosis and treatment of the patient with dysphagia. Centered around the "gold standard" imaging modality, i.e. videofluorography, the text also includes chapters on other modalities such as ultrasound, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. The broad scope of the text makes it the definitive reference work for professionals already involved with patients with dysphagia as well as newcomers interested in learning more about the imaging approaches to these patients. This is a "must read" for professionals in specialities such as radiology, gastroenterology, otolaryngology, rehabilitation medicine and speech language pathology.
