Description
Educational Psychology by Tony Cline, Anthea Gulliford and Susan Birch is a comprehensive overview of how advances in social, developmental and cognitive psychology impact educational psychologists. This third edition explores controversies and dilemmas in research and practice, providing students with a balanced introduction to the field and profession. The book delves into the role of educational psychologists working today, examining how they integrate core psychological disciplines and consider 'evidence-informed practice'. It is organized into two sections: learning and social, emotional and mental health. The authors feature vignettes from practitioners in various contexts, as well as tasks and scenarios to support a problem-orientated approach. This edition aims to encourage students to think critically about the possibilities and limitations of educational psychology, making it an ideal resource for those looking to engage with this evolving field of study.
