这本书是关于早期干预计划对生活在经济贫困地区和其他环境下的儿童教育的长期影响的宝贵信息来源。 Head Start 等早期干预计划得到了民众和立法机构的支持,但到目前为止,政策制定者和从业者还缺乏关于此类地方和联邦政府强制措施的长期后果的确凿数据。 “早期干预的成功”重点关注芝加哥的儿童家长中心 (CPC) 计划,这是联邦资助的第二古老的早期儿童干预计划(仅次于 Head Start)。该计划始于 1967 年,目前在 24 个中心运营,这些中心位于其服务的小学附近。 CPC 计划的独特之处包括强制家长参与以及从学前班到三年级的单一、持续的教育体系。这项研究的核心是 1986 年的近 1200 名 CPC 儿童队列和一组低收入儿童,他们随后的活动、挑战和成就一直持续到 15 岁。这些孩子的生活充分证明了中国共产党的计划所产生的积极的长期教育和社会影响。阿瑟·J·雷诺兹 (Arthur J.

This book is a valuable source of information on the long-term effects of early intervention programs on the education of children living in economically disadvantaged areas and in other contexts. Early intervention programs such as Head Start enjoy popular and legislative support, but until now, policymakers and practitioners have lacked hard data on the long-term consequences of such locally and federally mandated efforts. "Success in Early Intervention" focuses on the Child-Parent Center (CPC) program in Chicago, the second oldest (after Head Start) federally funded early childhood intervention program. Begun in 1967, the program currently operates out of twenty-four centers, which are located in proximity to the elementary schools they serve. The CPC program's unique features include mandatory parental involvement and a single, sustained educational system that spans preschool through the third grade. Central to this study is a 1986 cohort of nearly twelve hundred CPC children and a comparison group of low income children whose subsequent activities, challenges, and achievements are followed through the age of fifteen. The lives of these children amply demonstrate the positive long-term educational and social consequences of the CPC program. Arthur J.
