This author exemplifies the instruction methodologies she writes about in the Psychology of Learning for Instruction. As a graduate student using this as a textbook this semester, I have found it to be invaluable. I only wish that I had more time to mine the depths of her references and Reflective Questions and Activities at the end of each chapter!

I read this book while researching for information about transitioning young children. While I did not find this information, I was transfixed by the easy reading of this book about other early childhood programs. The author traveled all over, and described so many different stratagies that I feel are helpful to know. I tried to pick a favorite strategy that I would use, but I like them all so much I wish I worked at each place she described. It also included an exceptional child classroom, which I thought was touching. This author was unbiased, informative, and inquisitive. The book even offers a question sequence after each program so that it can really get you thinking. I will cherish this one for a long time.

I had the pleasure of being an online graduate student at Florida State University where Dr. Driscoll was teaching. Having Dr. Driscoll as an instructor, using her own book as a textbook for the course, was an invaluable experience for me. Anyone who needs a deeper understanding of cognitive learning theories need not look any further than this book. The logical formatting and presentation, the examples and explanations of theory from a variety of sources, makes this book a true gem, and one I still refer to, years after attending Dr. Driscoll's course.
