The Psychology of Learning: Everyday Life Applications introduces readers to fundamental theories and concepts about how learning occurs. Concise, practical, and easy to understand, the text features topics that are relevant and relatable, and skillfully employs scenarios to show how theories and concepts apply in real-world learning situations.

Students will explore the nature of learning, classical and operant conditioning, the impact of reinforcement on learning, the role of self control and adherence to rules, and the power of others' influence on learning. Chapters include clear objectives to support student focus, lists of key terms to facilitate comprehension and test preparation, discussion questions, and application opportunities. The rich examples throughout the text make the material high-interest and engaging for readers.

Designed to be a fresh and accessible alternative to standard academically-focused texts on learning, The Psychology of Learning is ideal for courses in education, including special or early childhood education, and the psychology of learning.
