Reviews

From reviews of the text: The writing style is very engaging and appropriate... Meaningful interpretation and representation of the content (e.g., examples, tables, figure, summaries, application examples) is the real strength of this book. -- Sungok Serena Shim, Ball State University The authors do their homework in terms of supporting their writing with research and the work of others in the field and those in fields allied to educational psychology.... [They] are clearly driven by the professional literature as well as current understandings of best practice, and there are plenty of practical examples and applications to keep the students' interest....Eggen and Kauchak are personable and real. -- Douglas W. Smith, Coastal Carolina University
