ExchangeEveryDay Past Issues

One of the EdTalks on the Exchange EdFlicks online platform is by Deb Curtis, author of the best-selling book, Really Seeing Children. One of the topics she discusses is new research on how young children learn to understand others’ behavior:

“I’m always researching something related to children, and lately I’ve been noticing how children already know how to get along. They get into little fights...but mostly they figure out how to solve them. So I’ve been studying that - what skills do they already have, what dispositions do they already have, that help them get along? It makes sense they have skills since children are keen observers of people from the time they are babies...There’s research that shows that by the time they are 10 months old they are already doing a kind of advanced statistics - ‘if I do this, then you do that, and I can predict what you’re going to do based on what I do.’ And this is really exciting to me. Babies that young are already figuring out human behavior.”
