| Summary: | The foundations of students' learning are particularly complex. The processes of learning depend upon numerous factors which affect how students and teachers perceive their interactions with each other, including the individual characteristics of students and teachers, the method of instruction, the nature of the curriculum which is used, and the external factors that impinge upon the classroom environment. If teachers are to be successful in stimulating students' learning they must understand the formidable intricacies of their undertaking. This volume, comprising several chapters selected from The International Encyclopedia of Education edited by T. HusÉn and T.N. Postlethwaite, Educational Research Methodology and Measurement: An International Handbook edited by J. Keeves, The International Encyclopedia of Education: Supplementary Volume One edited by T. HusÉn and T.N. Postlethwaite and The International Encyclopedia of Educational Evaluation edited by H.J. Walberg and G.D. Haertel and The International Encyclopedia of Teaching and Teacher Education edited by M.J. Duncan provides a basis for comprehending the complicated nature of learning and thus a framework for investigating the foundations of students' learning. |
