Since the successful publication of the first edition of Educational Psychology: A Practitioner-Researcher Approach, An Asian Edition, the global landscape and international interest in education has escalated. The 21st century calls for new rules of engagement with the environment and a renewed understanding of educational psychology as teachers learn to understand the emerging profiles of diverse learners. Much has also happened in Asia and internationally in terms of new initiatives in education that impact on the teacher's role. Like the first edition, the underpinning philosophy of this second edition remains the same, which is to equip the aspiring educator to be the best teacher he/she can be through a deep knowledge and reflective study of educational psychology.
