This is the best writing of an ed psych text that I ve seen in years. In addition to the
writing style, I like the philosophy that aims at promoting knowledge and skills for
professional development of the prospective teachers. The closing statement strikes a
major point by emphasizing learning and application of the knowledge and skills in the
process of becoming a teacher. This is very important to me. The purpose of an ed psych
class should not only cover theory and research, but also and more importantly, develop
students competency to apply them in practice.

Case studies were realistic, especially the So Yoon. This is a good example to discuss
diversity and the implications, if any, to students success and challenges.

I especially appreciate the authors for putting all these terms and theories into practice.
Textbooks often neglect to help students make the connection between what they
read/learn and how they should perform in classrooms. I must commend the authors
efforts in preparing the highlevel thinking questions at the end of each case study. Most
case studies I have seen ask low-level thinking questions where answers are most
obvious, which makes the activity somewhat futile. These questions that the authors
prepared are very meaningful and appropriate.
