Introduction to Educational Psychology
Educational psychology is the science of teaching and learning. It integrates theories of learning with research on variables that impact teaching and learning and what maximizes learning. Understanding factors that interfere with and maximize learning reduces learner frustration and leads to greater learning.
To learn more about the history, evolution, and contributions to educational psychology, read the following resource.
Mayer, R. E. (2018). Educational psychology’s past and future contributions to the science of learning, science of instruction, and science of assessment. Journal of Educational Psychology, 110(2), 174–179.
