Publisher's Synopsis
Cheryl Cisero Durwin and Marla Reese-Weber's EdPsych Modules offers readers the tools needed to become better teachers by adapting instruction based on student's individual needs. Each unit in the book is comprised of several modules--succinct, stand-alone topics that allow instructors to customize their courses based on specific teacher education programs within their universities. The units begin with a set of case studies written for Early Childhood, Elementary, Middle and Secondary classrooms, giving students direct insight into the dynamics influencing the students they actually plan to teach. "Assess" questions at the end of each case and "Reflect and Evaluate" questions at the end of each module tie the module's content back to the case studies, encouraging students to apply what they've learned to real-world scenarios. Diversity coverage is interwoven throughout and highlighted in each chapter, emphasizing how psychological factors adapt and change as race, gender, disability, and socioeconomic influences come into play.
