From reviews of the book:
“Rather than simply presenting the necessary content, the author makes you feel like she is talking directly to you. . . . I love that diversity that has been woven throughout the fabric of this text. . . . Ormrod’s personalized writing style will reach undergraduate students in a way that few authors can. [The book] is concise, yet thorough; comprehensive, yet unpretentious.”
--Angela Bloomquist, California University of Pennsylvania
‘Compared to other texts, Ormrod’s text is written in a more accessible way. . . . Strengths [include] accessibility, good use of supplementary materials, [and] updated research.”
--David Yun Dai, University at Albany, SUNY
“Love how each chapter discusses diversity and special needs! . . . Most students keep this text throughout their teaching careers as a resource. Of all the educational psychology textbooks that I’ve used, this one is the most comprehensive and interactive with vivid examples. . . . The supplemental materials are very useful. The power point is extensive and easy to use for lecture. I use the test bank materials and find the questions to be aligned with students’ licensure exams.”
--Cindy Ballantyne, Northern Arizona University
