Educators and educational psychologists recognize transfer of
learning as perhaps the most significant issue in all fields of
instruction. Transfer of learning cuts across all educational
domains, curricula, and methods. Despite its importance, research
and experience clearly show that significant transfer of learning
in either the classroom or in everyday life seldom occurs. Simply
put, transfer of learning is illustrated by the phrases "It reminds
me of..." or "It's like..." or "It's the same as...." This book
addresses the fundamental problem of how past or current learning
is applied and adapted to similar and/or new situations. Based on a
review of the applied educational and cognitive research, as well
as on the author's teaching experience with transfer of learning,
this book presents a new framework for understanding and achieving
transfer of learning.
Current education and educational psychology textbooks either lack
or lament the lack of research and guidance to educators on
promoting transfer of learning. Thus this book is a necessary basis
for all instruction and learning. Based on history and research,
the book shows that transfer of learning is not just a technique of
learning or instruction, but a way of thinking and knowing.
