First released in the Spring of 1999, How People Learn has been expanded to show how the theories and insights from the original book can translate into actions and practice, now making a real connection between classroom activities and learning behavior. This edition includes far-reaching suggestions for research that could increase the impact that classroom teaching has on actual learning. Like the original edition, this book offers exciting new research about the mind and the brain that provides answers to a number of compelling questions. When do infants begin to learn? How do experts learn and how is this different from non-experts? What can teachers and schools do-with curricula, classroom settings, and teaching methodsâ€"to help children learn most effectively? New evidence from many branches of science has significantly added to our understanding of what it means to know, from the neural processes that occur during learning to the influence of culture on what people see and absorb. How People Learn examines these findings and their implications for what we teach, how we teach it, and how we assess what our children learn. The book uses exemplary teaching to illustrate how approaches based on what we now know result in in-depth learning. This new knowledge calls into question concepts and practices firmly entrenched in our current education system. Topics include: How learning actually changes the physical structure of the brain. How existing knowledge affects what people notice and how they learn. What the thought processes of experts tell us about how to teach. The amazing learning potential of infants. The relationship of classroom learning and everyday settings of community and workplace. Learning needs and opportunities for teachers. A realistic look at the role of technology in education.

Reading research studies from 1950 to 1969 were selected for inclusion in this bibliography from ERIC/CRIER's data base which contains materials from published journal literature, dissertations, USOE sponsored research, and International Reading Association conference proceedings. Since this bibliography is designed to serve the needs of the researcher, the student, and the practitioner, it is appropriately divided into three categories: methodology, summaries, and applications. The methodology section includes studies of the reading research community as well as of research techniques and designs. The latter items relate both to general approaches and to designs and techniques for specific reading research problems. The summary section includes periodic reviews of reading research. These include the Gray Annual Summary, summaries of research on particular topics, such as research on visual problems in reading, summaries of doctoral research in reading, and summaries of investigations in one aspect of reading, such as secondary reading and college reading. The application section consists of items that interpret and apply research findings to particular problems of reading instruction. An author's guide, ordering information through the ERIC Document Reproduction Service and University Microfilms and listings of ERIC/CRIER and IRA publications are appended.
