Applied Psychology for Teachers: A Behavioral Cognitive Approach
Reader's review: The only book I know of that teaches the science of instruction in a way that teachers can use. There are reasons why students don't learn and oftentimes it's because of how material is sequenced and presented. This book helps teachers learn how to design lessons to maximize student learning. A classic but masterful!

This teacher-friendly book focuses on learning at all levels in secondary schools. The authors are mainly concerned with how young people learn and how those in different roles in schools can promote their learning. They combine research with challenging ideas to stimulate tutors, subject teachers, team leaders and school managers as well as mentors and governors to think about their role in young people's learning. They examine these relationships within school and beyond its boundaries. The authors do this by drawing on different voices in secondary schools: young people, as well as parents, teachers and others who have a role in supporting young people's learning.
