This book presents the main traditional and contemporary themes of educational psychology based on its three components: students, learning, and teaching. Regarding students, it examines the cognitive, linguistic, social, and emotional development of children, as well as their individual differences in learning in terms of culture, gender, motivation, intelligence, and educational special needs. Approaching the issue of learning, the book includes chapters on behavioral, socio-cognitive, cognitive, and constructivist theories.

Regarding teaching, special reference is made to issues such as designing appropriate learning environments, integrating technology into teaching practice, as well as educational and psychological assessment of students. The treatment of all the above fields is based on contemporary research data from international literature. Also, all chapters connect theory with practice, developing hypothetical scenarios that reflect the reality of the classroom and providing useful practical recommendations. The book is completed with the presentation of a holistic approach to education, which utilizes integrated, empirically grounded educational practices.
