TEST BANK. Prepared by Gabrielle Principe of Cornell University and Naomi Tyler of Vanderbilt University, the test bank contains essay questions, and over 2,000 multiple-choice questions, each of which is page-referenced to chapter content and classified by type (factual, applied, or conceptual).

COMPUTERIZED TEST BANK. This computerized version of the test bank, in easy-to-use software, lets you prepare tests for printing as well as for network and online testing. It has full editing capability for Windows and Macintosh.

TRANSPARENCIES: Two hundred full-color transparencies taken from the text and other sources are referenced in the Instructor's Resource Manual for the most appropriate use in your classroom presentations.

CHILD DEVELOPMENT IN ACTION OBSERVATION PROGRAM. Laura E. Berk has revised and expanded this real-life videotape, containing hundreds of observation segments that illustrate the many theories, concepts, and milestones of child development. New additions include Childbirth and Adolescent Friendship, plus a separate videotape of running observational footage. An Observation Guide helps students use the videos in conjunction with the textbook, deepening their understanding and applying what they have learned to everyday life. (The videotapes and Observation Guide are free to instructors who adopt the text and are available to students at a discount when packaged with the text).

Nearly 75 psychologists, biologists, sociologists, and anthropologists present theory, methods, and research.
