Jim Gould manages the Teacher Education programmes at Farnborough College in Hampshire. He has extensive experience in teaching and training in a variety of educational sectors including schools, adult education and further education.
‘Early in the text, the author states the aim of this book to be,
‘‘to provide a relatively easily digestible overview of learning
theory, and the references and further reading at the end of each
chapter will allow you to engage in more in-depth study of areas
that are of particular interest’’ (p. 6). This, and considerably
more, has been achieved in a well-crafted resource for both
teachers and students in the lifelong learning sector (and beyond),
one they will find informative and engaging in terms of truly
understanding how effective teaching practices are informed and
enhanced by learning theories.’
