The theory to guide instruction is cognitive psychology.  The concepts in this book lead the teacher to develop a theory of instruction as opposed to operating on intuition.  The theory based on psychological concepts allows the teacher develop applications which fit their style.   Evidenced based concepts are presented in this book oriented to what teachers do to plan and deliver instruction. To support those ideas the book provides a strong application of intrinsic motivation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMinds on Psychology for Teaching Methods, by Harold Jones, Ph.D. offers the pre-service teacher, and parents, a well-organized supplement to a typical educational psychology course. The book takes a cognitive processing model approach to learning rather than a behaviorist model of learning. The chapter outline of questions, answers in terms of concept development and application, points to remember and things to avoid serves as a sound scaffold to build upon. This text can serve as a valuable addition to the pre-service teacher’s and parent’s toolkit. It can also serve as a valuable refresher to in-service teachers. I recommend this book for teachers and parents. -- Porter E.
