Now celebrating its 50th anniversary, An Introduction to Theories of Learning has provided a uniquely sweeping review of the major learning theories from the 20th century that profoundly influenced the field of psychology. The four main goals of this text are to define learning, to show how the learning process is studied, to place learning theory in a historical perspective, and to present essential features of the major theories of learning with implications for educational practices.
In this new edition, the authors have retained the best features of earlier additions while expanding and enhancing its application to modern scholarship. Key features of the eleventh edition include:
- Enhanced neuroscience integration, including discussions on cortical waves, mirror neurons, memory consolidation, and brain-based evidence supporting classic learning theories.
- The incorporation of new findings on species-specific behaviors and habituation, including insightful problem-solving in birds and the neurobiological basis of insight in humans.
- New sections on artificial intelligence applications in education, improved study techniques based on large-scale research, and the implementation of learning principles in public health.
- Enhanced pedagogy to increase engagement, including interactive online self-testing questions.
Bringing together contributions from throughout history through to the modern day, this is an essential resource for applied cognitive psychology courses and all those interested in the processes that underlie learning in human beings and animals.
