Oxford Handbook of Educational Psychology

Educational psychology explores how people learn, stay motivated, and grow across a wide range of formal and informal educational settings. With a discipline that covers such varied contexts for teaching and learning, The Oxford Handbook of Educational Psychology, serves as a much-needed overview of the field. Core chapters will discuss social and cognitive development, theories of learning, instructional approaches, collaborative learning, assessment, student motivation, teaching of a specific subject, and research methods. This book is an essential resource for those working both in and out of schools and will set the research agenda for years to come.
