Educational Psychology helps you understand your own learning and apply the core concepts and principles of educational psychology. It's known for its exceptionally clear and engaging writing, its in-depth focus on learning and its extensive concrete applications. The text's unique approach moves seamlessly between theory and application, helping you understand concepts by examining your own learning and then showing you how to apply these concepts as teachers. 

The 10th Edition reflects the most current research on learning, development, motivation and assessment.
