Esherick and Landreth believed that a higher ceiling would shift the observers' focus from the height differential of the people occupying the space to the activities taking place.

In most other preschools, the ceilings tend to be low which emphasizes the height of adults in relation to children. This included the careful planning of ceiling heights and placement of activity centers. Catherine Landreth, a former director of the school and designer of the building, worked with Joseph Esherick to create a space where the development of children would be highlighted. The Jones CSC preschool has an outdoor play area that is accessible virtually all day long via sliding doors and partially protected by an overhead canopy. Undergraduate students in Early Childhood Education may also gain experience in the classrooms as teachers' assistants. Faculty, postdoctoral, graduate, and undergraduate students observe and test children attending the preschool for their research projects. The primary audiences for the findings include scholars and parents. Research conducted at the Institute of Human Development and the Jones Child Study Center is interdisciplinary: psychology, education, social welfare, architecture, sociology, linguistics, public health, and pediatrics. The Institute of Human Development's fundamental mission is to study evolutionary, biological, psychological, social, and cultural factors that affect human development from birth through old age. The Jones Child Study Center has a special relationship with the Institute of Human Development as a site for research, training and outreach to the community, parents, and teachers. It is one of the oldest continuously running centers for the study of children in the country. Jones Child Study Center is a research and educational institution for young children at the University of California, Berkeley. *Community rates apply when an enrolled family’s UCSF affiliation concludes.Ĭontact the Site Director to inquire about community rates.The Harold E.
