Preface
Greetings and welcome to the 11th edition of the Instructor’s Resource Manual for Woolfolk’s
Educational Psychology. We hope that this manual serves as a useful teaching tool and resource
as you prepare for your classes. We recognize no two teachers are alike, nor are any two
classrooms alike. It is our intent that you be inspired to modify these activities and slides to fit
your teaching and your classroom. We encourage users to think of this manual as a starting point.
Online Instructor’s Manual
For those of you who are familiar with the previous Instructor’s Resource Manual, the most
prominent change you will notice is layout. Activities, discussions, resources, and links to
AnitaTalks podcasts are organized according to the focus questions at the beginning of each
chapter of the textbook. The focus questions serve as the focal point for each chapter in the
Instructor’s Resource Manual. We feel this organization aligns the text and its resources in a
way that helps to synthesize all of the resources available for each chapter.
Each chapter in the Instructor’s Resource Manual begins with a list of focus questions from the
text, as well as the relevant chapter objectives and study plan activities available in the
MyEducationLab online course. Each focus question is accompanied by additional activities and
resources included within this manual designed to help address that question. Focus Questions
are individually hot-linked to the activities and resources that relate to them. Thus, the instructor
desiring to focus on one particular focus question need not scan around the entire manual for the
appropriate resources, but can just click on the focus question.
Each focus question is organized in the following order:
Activities. Activities were chosen that support the learning objectives and to promote
active learning. All activities have proven to promote student engagement. We recognize
that each classroom is unique. Thus, we encourage users to modify activities based on the
characteristics of their students. Referenced in each chapter are handouts that accompany
some of the activities described in the manual; the handouts themselves are located at the
end of the manual. The handouts can be photocopied as needed for distribution in classes
that use the Educational Psychology textbook.
Discussion Questions. Discussion questions were chosen to promote a deeper level of
student engagement with the learning objectives. Some questions were chosen with the
intent to help students process the material in order to understand a given topic. Other
questions are intended to promote rich discussion that helps students to understand the
complexity of a given topic and to consider alternative views.
Other Resources. Additional resources include links to websites or podcasts. Many of the
podcasts are from Anita Woolfolk’s Anita Talks about Teaching series, and thus are
especially pertinent to content from the text. Clicking on the link while pressing the
‘control’ key on your keypad will take you to the site. Once at the site
