For years the gold standard in its field, the new Canadian edition of Educational Psychology continues that tradition of excellence with updated Canadian content and statistics, an enhanced layout, improved pedagogy, and fully integrated MyEducationLab media content. This fifth Canadian edition emphasizes Canada's multicultural context and provides information about reaching diverse learners with added content through the text. As well, the new "Diversity and Convergences" sections highlight the similarities and differences among students in today's classroom. An entire new chapter, "The Learning Sciences and Constructivism" explores the latest findings of modern views about education. Along with its new content, Educational Psychology continues to integrate foundational theories and recent research and demonstrates how to apply this knowledge in real life situations. It shows how and why students learn and the roles of educational professions in motivating and guiding learning. Point/Counterpoint boxes acknowledge controversies and prepare readers to make informed decisions. In maintaining its tradition of excellence, and enhancing its design and content, Educational Psychology, 5th Canadian Edition will remain the gold standard in the field.
