These two volumes essentially capture the focal points of the 1987 EARLI Conference. Volume 2.1 contains those contributions which are concerned with basic psychological and educational aspects of learning and instruction as for example social interaction in learning and instruction, problem solving, basic processes in knowledge acquisition, individual differences, research strategies. Furthermore, Volume 2.1 contains those contributions which deal with computer applications in learning and instruction. Volume 2.2 comprises contributions which analyse complex skills - teaching, text comprehension, text production - and complex knowledge domains, such as mathematics and science, by means of actual psychological and pedagogical theories and concepts.

Vol. 3 ISBN 9780080410395
Description
The papers contained in this volume cover the essential points of the 1989 EARLI Conference. They demonstrate a continuing increase in research on learning and instruction as new approaches to learning are constantly being developed. To study these approaches and to achieve a better understanding of traditional teaching problems, these contributions, from differing points of view and different disciplines that examine the acquisition of new knowledge, are necessary. Topics include: learning environments for special education needs, learning and instruction in specific knowledge domains, language development and learning, classroom learning processes, and multicultural learning.
