An Introduction to Educational Psychology, Paperback / softback Book

An Introduction to Educational Psychology Paperback / softback

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Education series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book introduces students of education to the elements of educational psychology.

It also relates as closely as possible the findings of research to classroom practice.

In order to make clear the fundamental processes involved in psychological development, the book starts with a study of the way in which the young child adapts its behaviour to its environment.

This study considers some of the key aspects of physical development, mainly the central nervous system.

At the same time the way physical growth and psychological development are influenced by the experience of the individual is also discussed.

This discussion of development is followed by an examination of the processes of learning, with particular attention paid to the works of Piaget.

The salient points of each chapter are brought together in a summary which may be used by the reader to obtain a preliminary overview of the content of the chapter, and as an aid to revision.
