EDUC 3110
Educational Psychology

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2023-2024.

Educational psychology is the application of psychological principles and concepts to cases of teaching and learning. We study behavioral, cognitive, embodied, and social-cultural perspectives on learning and thinking, and we use them in planning and reflecting on weekly fieldwork outside the classroom. In the process, we become more mindful and skilled learners ourselves and better facilitators of others' learning.

When Offered Fall, Spring.

Permission Note Enrollment limited to: sophomores, juniors, and seniors.
