The way this text introduces each theory and provides application is really useful to students who are new to theory of education and practice of education within their role. It is accessible and easy to understand often acting as a good starting point to then build upon.
Very comprehensive key text on educational theories and their application to practice. Well-structured, clearly written and accessible to both undergraduates and postgraduates. A really key text.
Recommended reading for any learner in teaching and training as an easy reference source, classroom aid and support to session prep.
This is the go to book for many new students to the PGCE (PCET) who have come from a non-education background- providing them with the relevant underpinning information that supports their teaching practice.
This is an essential book for at least 2 of our modules that deal with how children learn. The descriptions of the theories and applications as shown in the book make it ideal for our course.
An excellent reference book, well organised into theorists for even greater clarity. Easily accessible for students and clearly written, allowing for application of theory into practice. I will be recommending this for my students - just what I was looking for.
Clear and succinct, a balanced and objective introduction to key theorists.
This is such a great reference tool, either for the tutor before each session or for students at any time to dig a little deeper into a theory mentioned in study. loads of references and links rot further reading...if required.
The depth that each key thinker is covered in is helpful as an springboard text for trainees on the PGCE. Key chapters have been signposted to in the reading list.
This book provides a clear overview of learning theory in an easy to understand format for students across our Undergraduate and Postgraduate courses. The underlying principles in relation to learning theory pedagogy form a thread throughout the text and offers some balances perspectives that are useful for the critical approach we would like our trainee teachers to adopt. I have recommended this text to our library services to add this to the reading list for our PGCE secondary cohort which is approximately 150 students and to our online distance learning and international PGCE.
Simple introduction to educational theory. easy to read and understand to build on knowledge.
Level 4 good basic level 4 theorist support
This is a really helpful introductory guide for students who can then go off and do further research on a particular theorist.
Extremely comprehensive guide to key theories
This book explores a range of educational theorists offering a critically analytical approach of ideas, highlighting ways to apply theory to practice. It is clearly written, easy to digest and presented in a practical and logical order.
This book is a fantastic addition to anyone's reading list who is required to understand the thinking and background of theorists in relation to teaching practice, particularly teaching pre and post secondary.
very clear, readable overview of important theories that will be a useful reference source for a number of modules
Useful overview of a range of theories written in a clear and accessible style. Works across some of our other modules too.
