What is Educational Psychology?
|
|
|
In an era of educational turmoil and reform, educational psychology stands forth as one of the preeminent social science disciplines for understanding and improving the processes of teaching and learning. Over the past thirty years, the field of educational psychology has undergone a major shift in emphasis. Building on earlier successes in the development of behavioral learning models, instructional design, and test theory, educational psychologists have advanced principles of social-cognitive learning that have the potential to revolutionize the work of teachers and students in school settings.
