Introduction to the Psychology of Learning
This course will cover the basic theories of learning, particularly the behavioral and cognitive theories, and the more modern theories such as Brain-based learning and Multiple Intelligences. Everyone is involved in the learning process for at least a quarter of his life; some of us much more than that. Understanding the learning theories and how the brain actually functions leads to better performance both as a teacher and as a student.
