Description

Written in a conversational and engaging manner, How We Think and Learn introduces readers to basic principles and research findings regarding human cognition and memory. It also highlights and debunks twenty-eight common misconceptions about thinking, learning, and the brain. Interspersed throughout the book are many short do-it-yourself exercises in which readers can observe key principles in their own thinking and learning. All ten chapters end with concrete recommendations - both for readers' own learning and for teaching and working effectively with others. As an accomplished researcher and writer, Jeanne Ellis Ormrod gives us a book that is not only highly informative but also a delight to read.

Author Biography:

Jeanne Ellis Ormrod received her AB degree in psychology from Brown University, Rhode Island and her MS and PhD degrees in educational psychology from Pennsylvania State University. She was Professor of Educational Psychology at the University of Northern Colorado (UNC) until 1998 and is now Professor Emerita in UNC's School of Psychological Sciences. Although she no longer conducts her own research on learning and cognition, she remains an avid reader of psychological and educational research, stays in touch with many of her professional colleagues around the world, and continues to update her popular college textbooks in human learning, educational psychology, and research methodologies.
