Handbook of Instructional Resources and Their Applications in the Classroom

This new book provides a series of instructional resources, at the aptitudinal, cognitive-strategic, and affective-motivational levels to be applied in the classroom. It integrates in a single text some techniques, programs, and instructional procedures that the participating authors consider relevant for educational practice, and which are very useful tools for the professionals involved in educational intervention. To achieve this purpose, several professors from various universities have developed a conjoint proposal. Starting from the main research tendencies in educational and instructional psychology, they have systematized this research-derived knowledge, making it both practical and useful. The common-sense approach and utility of this viewpoint is relevant and necessary, as professors facilitate the application of such knowledge in educational settings, both with 'normal' students and with students with diverse difficulties and inabilities.
