How will learning about educational psychology help you be a better teacher?
• Teaching is a complex enterprise– Educational psychology provides information
about a wide range of knowledge and skills
• Research that informs teachers– Educational psychology offers useful and tested
ideas for improving instruction
• Coursework and competence– Educational psychology helps prepare teachers
to be effective

Teaching is a complex enterprise
• Professional teaching standards have been developed and are based on five propositions:– Teachers are committed to students
and their learning– Teachers know the subjects they teach and how to
teach those subjects to students

Teaching is a complex enterprise (cont’d)
– Teachers are responsible for managing and monitoring student learning

(National Board for Professional Teaching Standards, 1994)

Research in educational psychology informs teaching
• Examples– Use more advanced students to tutor less
advanced students– Give positive reinforcement and corrective
feedback to students – Communicate to students about expectations– Require students to respond to higher-order
questions– Provide students with cues about the upcoming
tasks

Complicating factors in the study of behavior and thought processes
• Limited focus of research
• Debates about which type of research is most useful
• Individual differences in perception and thinking
• Selection and interpretation of data
• New findings mean revised ideas
![Page 12: Chapter 1 Applying Psychology to Teaching Viewing recommendations for Windows: Use the Arial TrueType font and set your screen area to at least 800 by.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022082816/56649f495503460f94c6a8f5/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Good teaching is partly an art and partly a science
• Teaching as an art – Beliefs, emotions, values, flexibility
• Teaching as a science – Usable body of research findings

Reflective teaching
• Reflective teachers possess:– Introspective orientation– Open-minded but questioning attitude
about educational theories and practices– Willingness to take responsibility
for your decisions and actions

Ways to become a reflective teacher
• Use the Suggestions for Teaching from each chapter to gather ideas
• Try the Suggestions out in your teaching
• Use the Journal Entries from each chapter to help guide observation notes of yourself and your students
