Widely acclaimed for its applied, practical and teacher-centered approach, "Psychology Applied to Teaching," 15th Edition, shows how psychological theories can help teachers better understand students as unique individuals and support them as learners. The text is framed to help aspiring and practicing educators see themselves as scholars of practice -- intentional in their inquiry to improve outcomes for every learner. The text blends fresh concepts and contemporary research with long-standing theory and tools for growth. This edition integrates InTASC standards and aligns with the Core Propositions of the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards, offering a roadmap for professional development. Learning Objectives guide your study and connect Knowing and Doing objectives to critical questions explored in every chapter.

Jack Snowman is professor emeritus in the School of Education at Southern Illinois University. He has a master’s degree in school psychology from Miami University (Ohio) and a Ph.D. from Indiana University in educational psychology. He taught courses in human learning, memory and theories of intelligence. He began his professional career as a school psychologist in Ohio and New Jersey. Since 1982, he has either been a co-author or sole author of "Psychology Applied to Teaching." He was included in the 1989–1990 edition of "Who’s Who in American Education." Over the book’s many editions, he has striven to have it reflect current research findings and to maintain the book’s unique feature -- providing useful suggestions for how research findings could be used to improve classroom instruction. Rick McCown is professor emeritus in the School of Education at Duquesne University, PA. He has won a number of teaching awards, including election to the Pennsylvania Society for Scholar-Teachers, his University’s highest teaching awards, the Presidential Award for Excellence in Teaching and citation from the American Educational Research Association.

Amy Olson is associate professor and associate dean of Teacher Education at Duquesne University, PA. She earned her Ph.D. at University of Arizona in 2014. Her commitment to equitable educational outcomes for all students is demonstrated in her book, "The American Dream for Students of Color: Myths and Barriers to Educational Success" (2021). As a scholar of practice, she examines equity implications of teachers’ beliefs about content and what it means to learn and to be successful in school. She teaches in undergraduate and graduate teacher education and educational leaderships programs with the goal of building capacity and sustaining the work of justice-oriented educators. Christopher Harris is a clinical assistant professor of educational psychology in the Department of Educational Foundations and Leadership at Duquesne University.
