The Education Department at La Salle University in Philadelphia has restructured
its teacher preparation program around the principles of human growth and
development. Instructors teaching the foundations courses are encouraged to
stress developmental principles through the application of four themes: (a)
Educational Practice in Developmental Perspective, (b) Image of the Child in
Developmental Perspective, (c) Educational Theory in Developmental Perspective,
and (d) Educational Language in Developmental Perspective. The focus and
coherence of foundations courses approached according to these themes would
be improved, especially because these courses are frequently weakened by
encyclopedic, disj uncted texts and by inadequately trained instructors.
