decent textbook, very expensive
2 of 3 people found this review helpful.
I bought this book because it was required for my Psychological Foundations of Education course. It's pretty expensive--I believe university bookstores ask about $100-$110 for it. I was lucky to get mine for about $87. The international edition is cheaper, and exactly the same.
The writing is somewhat engaging--Woolfolk addresses the reader directly. She includes Stop/Think/Write activities intermittenly, but I never do them.
Information in the book is complete, and vocabulary and key concepts are clear. Important information is often bolded, repeated in the margins and summarized at the end of the chapter.
There's nothing spectacular about this book, but it isn't the worst textbook I've ever had to buy and read.
