Education Psychology

As teachers, we must understand the way children think and behave, and the motivations behind what they do. We use psychological theories to help in many ways from the classroom environment to classroom management. For this WebQuest, you will learn about three important theories in education: cognitive psychology, behaviorism, and the Social Cognitive Theory. These are very broad, but by the end of this activity you will have a better understanding of these beliefs, and how to implement them in your classroom.
