Educational Psychology helps future teachers prepare for the realities of today’s classroom. Roxana Moreno emphasizes challenges in teacher education such as understanding and addressing the needs of the diversity of learners in the classroom, applying theories and research to the classroom, and critically examining teaching practices through reflection, problem solving, and critical thinking.

Educational Psychology includes several methods to reinforce learning:

• the opportunity to engage in the valuable exercise of reflecting regularly upon personal assumptions and critically examining the effectiveness of teaching practices with the range of students with whom they will be involved,
• two types of authentic cases to encourage the application of educational psychology theory and research to teaching situations, and
• pedagogical elements such as chapter-opening graphic organizers and connections across chapters to help future teachers organize their professional knowledge.

In addition, Educational Psychology is available with a powerful online teaching and learning environment, WileyPLUS. WileyPLUS integrates the entire digital textbook with the most effective instructor and student resources to fit every learning style.
