Educational Psychology (EPFR 315)

This course is designed to help you understand the way people behave, think, learn, grow, and develop.  This course also should help you apply this new understanding in planning effective instruction and learning environments. 

In this course, you'll have to deal with some theory, but theory is important.  After all, you can't decide "what to do" unless you know "why you want to do it."  Most assignments in this course are based on generative learning.  To more substantively learn, you must get in the habit of writing.
