This study aims to break through the sterile debate between theory and practice by focusing on teachers as enquirers endeavouring to solve pedagogical problems.

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.

The papers in this volume relate to the nature and conditions of classroom learning, with particular emphasis on the cognitive aspects.
