About the Course

This course sets out to provide an understanding of theories of learning and development and how these theories relate to educational
technology. It has two components. The first is theoretical, in which we attempt to develop an overall frame of reference, locating approaches
to the psychology of learning in terms of large paradigm shifts, from ‘behaviorism’ to ‘brain developmentalism’ to ‘social cognitivism’. The
second component is practical, in which we will use these theoretical concepts to ‘parse’ a technology-mediated learning environment for its
underlying presuppositions. -------------------------------- Recommended Background -------------------------------- This course is desi...

I think it's a great course for people who are interested in Educational Psychology. I recommend it for those who are "beginners" or in other words, who haven't quite studied psychology yet.

Good course, At first, it través for the básica and educational theories which are great, but at week 3 and week 4 lets you know more current issues in the educational field.

استفدت بالكثير من المعلومات رغم وجود أراء لم تعجبني لكن فكرة التنميه البشريه في حد ذاتها أمر مهم وجيد

Very insightful course! In my eyes, the last chapter was too in-depth and complex.

The course began well, with an overview of educational theories, but the second unit on social-emotional learning focused too narrowly on the single issue of bullying, the third unit on quantitative methods focused too narrowly on one case study of the classification of English Language learners. The final unit, on brain development in adolescents and early adults was again interesting.

Dr Kalantzis talks as though she were reading the content on the teleprompter for the first time. A jerky, stuttering delivery that distracts significantly from the content. Unenrolling.
