Taking a comprehensive approach across four modules, Educational Psychology for Learning and Teaching investigates the development of the learner over time, the learning process, individual differences in the classroom, and educational psychology in contemporary classrooms. This wholly Australian and New Zealand text caters for those who are planning to work with any age range from early childhood to adolescence and beyond.
