Advaced Educational Psychology in the MED .Program

On Monday evening I'll be visiting Dr. Kay Jones' class on Advanced Educational Psychology. Let me share some of the resources I'll use in class. If you are in the class, please comment here and let me know what your topic interests are.

I'm going to start with Google Scholar since our journals are now linked in Google Scholar.

http://scholar.google.com Look for "educational psychology." What do you find here and how is it useful to you?

Did you use the basic or the advanced search screen? Take a good look at the Advanced Search Screen.

Here's a sample of what you can find on Advanced Search
