Written to inform students of the main principles, concepts, and
research findings of key theories of learning-especially as they
relate to education-and to provide applications of principles and
concepts in settings where teaching and learning occur, this
revised text blends theory, research, and applications throughout,
providing its readers with a coherent and unified perspective on
learning in educational settings. The primary emphasis is placed on
cognitive theories that stress learners' constructions of beliefs,
skills, strategies, and knowledge, but behavioral theories are also
discussed in detail. Chapters have numerous applications of
learning principles to applied settings including vignettes at the
start of each chapter illustrating some of the principles discussed
in the chapter, examples and applications throughout the chapters,
and separate sections on instructional applications at the end of
each chapter. Key features of this revised text include: a new
chapter on Self-Regulation (Chapter 9); core chapters on the
neuroscience of learning (Chapter 2), constructivism (Chapter 6),
cognitive learning processes (Chapter 7), motivation (Chapter 8),
and development (Chapter 10) all related to teaching and learning;
updated sections on learning from technology and electronic media
and how these advancements effectively promote learning in students
(Chapters 7 & 10); detailed information on content-area
learning and models of instruction to form coherence and connection
between teaching and learning in different content areas, learning
principles, and processes (Chapters 2-10); and over 140 new
references on the latest theoretical ideas, research findings, and
applications in the field. An essential resource for understanding
key learning theoretical principles, concepts, and research
findings-especially as they relate to education-this proven text
blends theory, research, and applications throughout, providing its
readers with a coherent and unified perspective on learning in
educational settings.
