Some psychologists might be interested in a recent post titled
"Second Edition of Seifert/Sutton 'Educational Psychology' Available
Online and Open-Source" [Hake (2009)]. The abstract reads:
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
ABSTRACT: Kelvin Seifert has alerted the TeachingEdPsych list to the
SECOND edition of the FREE online text "Educational Psychology"
available at <http://globaltext.terry.uga.edu/books?q=node/61>. This
text appears to be concerned primarily with K-12 education so it is
perhaps not too surprising that the second edition, like the FIRST,
fails to mention the formative pre/post testing with concept
inventories that is currently being used to improve undergraduate -
and some high-school - courses in science, technology, engineering,
and math (STEM) disciplines (but not psychology!).
