      An accessible guide to the theories of 19 major educational thinkers, the strengths and limitations of their ideas, their relevance today and how they can be used in the classroom and other educational settings.

      This textbook gives readers a clear overview of a selection of 19 of the most influential thinkers on education, including established names (Vygotsky, Bruner, Dewey), more recent thinkers (Freire, hooks, Claxton) and other key names whose writing has helped shaped our views on teaching and learning. 

      Each chapter includes practical examples showing how theories can be used to inform classroom teaching, and critiques of each theorist exploring opposing viewpoints and the strengths and weaknesses of different ideas.

      This third edition includes:

      • New chapters on Barak Rosenshine and Daniel Goleman
      • Revamped reflective tasks with a greater practical focus for the classroom
      • More models and theoretical diagrams throughout

      This is an essential primer for any university course that includes learning theory, with particular relevance for initial teacher education, education studies and early childhood degrees.

      Karl Aubrey has recently retired from his post at Bishop Grosseteste University.

      Alison Riley is the Programme Leader for the BA Early Childhood Studies at Bishop Grosseteste University.
