As the popularity of video games has risen so too has the worry about the problems associated with playing them. The authors review the research concerning problem gaming, its similarity to some clinical addictions like gambling and drug and alcohol abuse, and current treatment options. They conclude that, regardless of how researchers and medical professionals assess the nature of a gaming disorder, few who play video games experience negative consequences from doing so and, at best, only a small subset of players might be considered to suffer from an addiction to it.

The High-Performing Preschool: Story Acting in Head Start Classrooms Gillian Dowley McNamee Chicago, IL: The University of Chicago Press, 2015. Foreword, preface, references, and index. 200 pp. $22.50 paper. ISBN: 9780226260952In The High-Performing Preschool: Story Acting in Head Start Classrooms, Gillian Dowley McNamee uses Lev Vygotsky's social learning theories to invite readers to think critically about early literacy through Vivian Gussein Paley's practical curriculum on dramatic play and storytelling. McNamee, a Paley apprentice, describes her own research observing urban Head Start children and their teacher, and she illustrates the reciprocity of teaching and learning between child and adult. She tells Paley's story, her own, and that of many teachers who invite children into "a very important space for teaching and learning: the line between our real individual lives and thinking on the stage-the shared space inside the square" (p. 122). In the preschool classroom, this space may be physically constructed of masking tape, but it represents an important space where children can find their public voice among peers within focused zones of proximal development. These public voices are part of school performance.Equipped with the tools of creative learning, McNamee specifically and rightly addresses urgent educational challenges, asking "How can classroom teachers enhance the oral-language foundations of children who are growing up in communities experiencing economic hardship" (p. xxi). She also ponders, "What curricular approach will initiate them into active verbal participation in a community of learners ready for the full breadth of educational opportunities school has to offer" (p. xxi).Besides these central questions, additional queries at the end of each chapter entice readers to consider using storytelling and drama within standardized educational constructs. McNamee explains how Paley, framed in Lev S. Vygotsky's theories, provides children from disadvantaged backgrounds who are learning English the opportunity to share their often-overlapping worldviews.Children in Paley and McNamee's world are empathetic and intelligent actors valued for their perspectives. For instance, in the book, Three Billy Goats Gruff, Mrs. Miller asked why the troll is mean? Chantell (a child in the class) responds "His mama dead." Carlos responds "Yeah. She dead," and all the children begin to argue over the troll's past, (p. 17). After some reflection, the teachers admit feeling uncomfortable with the discussion, but they discover these children are considering possibilities adults have missed, such as finding empathy for the homeless and orphaned troll.In chapter 3, titled "Doing Stories," children begin telling stories about topics spanning from Batman and princesses to angels and death. Here and throughout the book, readers can see how short scaffolded moments-in which children tell their stories, have them written down, and then act them out in the c
高绩效学前班:在领先的教室故事表演吉莉安道利麦克纳米芝加哥，伊利诺伊州:芝加哥大学出版社，2015。前言、序言、参考文献和索引。200页，22.5美元。在《高绩效学前教育:学前教育课堂中的故事表演》一书中，吉莉安·道利·麦克namee运用列夫·维果茨基的社会学习理论，通过薇薇安·古森·佩利关于戏剧表演和讲故事的实践课程，邀请读者批判性地思考早期读写能力。麦克纳米是佩利学院的一名学徒，她描述了自己对城市儿童和他们的老师的观察研究，并说明了儿童和成人之间教与学的互惠关系。她讲述了佩利的故事，她自己的故事，以及许多邀请孩子们进入“一个非常重要的教学空间:我们真实的个人生活和舞台上的思考之间的界限——广场内的共享空间”的教师的故事(第122页)。在学前班的教室里，这个空间可能是用胶带建造的，但它代表了一个重要的空间，在这里，孩子们可以在最近发展的重点区域内，在同龄人中找到他们的公共声音。这些公众声音是学校表现的一部分。有了创造性学习的工具，麦克纳米明确而正确地解决了紧迫的教育挑战，问道“课堂教师如何提高在经济困难社区长大的儿童的口语基础”(第21页)。她还思考:“什么样的课程方法能引导他们积极地参与到学习者群体中，为学校提供的全面教育机会做好准备”(第21页)。除了这些中心问题外，每章末尾的附加问题还会吸引读者考虑在标准化的教育结构中使用讲故事和戏剧。麦克纳米解释了在列夫·s·维果茨基(Lev S. Vygotsky)的理论框架下，Paley如何为学习英语的弱势背景的孩子提供了分享他们经常重叠的世界观的机会。在佩利和麦克纳米的世界里，孩子们是富有同情心和智慧的演员，他们的观点受到重视。例如，在《三只公山羊的格拉夫》一书中，米勒太太问为什么巨魔这么刻薄?Chantell(班上的一个孩子)回答说:“他妈妈死了。”卡洛斯回答说:“是的。她死了，”所有的孩子开始争论巨魔的过去，(第17页)。经过一番反思，老师们承认对这种讨论感到不舒服，但他们发现这些孩子正在考虑成年人错过的可能性，比如对无家可归和孤儿巨魔的同情。在第三章“讲故事”中，孩子们开始讲述从蝙蝠侠和公主到天使和死亡的故事。从这里到整本书，读者可以看到，孩子们讲述自己的故事，把故事写下来，然后在课堂上表演出来，这些短暂的脚手架时刻是如何支持新兴的读写能力的。这些实践促进了包容的伦理(第ix页)，培养了儿童对语言的所有权，并要求教师成为仔细观察和评估学生下一步发展步骤的领导者。麦克纳米并不期望立即掌握，而是利用自己有序和混乱的时刻，在课堂上实施佩利的课程，鼓励幼儿教育工作者尝试一下。迈克尔·科尔深思熟虑的前言说明了作者致力于简单而有爱心地将知识传递给他人。…
