Opis

A collection of 55 case studies intended for a graduate level educational psychology course. The cases are broken down into ten units. At the end of each case study there is a set of discussion questions that both stimulate discourse around the important issues in educational psychology and bring to light the practical implications/applications of each study. This includes: classroom management; child development; moral development; peer groups; troubled teenagers; troubled young adults; poverty; homelessness; and theorists and theories.
