In general, the first half of the book focuses on broader questions and principles taken from psychology per se, and the second half focuses on somewhat more practical issues of teaching. But the division between “theory” and “practice” is only approximate; all parts of the book draw on research, theory, and practical wisdom wherever appropriate.
The authors of this textbook remixed other works to create twelve chapters that cover major educational learning theories such as behaviorism, cognitive learning, multiple intelligences, etc. Slides are available.
