Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the concept of interest in education, examining its nature, development, and effect on the learning process from infancy to adulthood. It begins by arguing that a more comprehensive understanding of interest, encompassing both direct and indirect studies, is needed to inform educational theory and practice. The author then delves into the psychological and physiological underpinnings of interest, drawing on introspective, descriptive, and statistical approaches to identify the key factors that influence its expression. The book also explores the role of social and environmental factors in shaping interest, particularly in the context of play and imitation. Through a synthesis of these diverse perspectives, the author develops a theory of interest that emphasizes its dynamic and multifaceted nature. This theory suggests that interest is not a fixed trait but rather a complex phenomenon that is shaped by both innate and acquired factors and which plays a crucial role in motivation and learning.
