International Handbook of the Learning Sciences

<p>The <i>International Handbook of the Learning Sciences </i>is a comprehensive collection of international perspectives on this interdisciplinary field. In more than 50 chapters leading experts synthesize past current and emerging theoretical and empirical directions for learning sciences research. The three sections of the handbook capture respectively: foundational contributions from multiple disciplines and the ways in which the learning sciences has fashioned these into its own brand of use-oriented theory design and evidence; learning sciences approaches to designing researching and evaluating learning broadly construed; and the methodological diversity of learning sciences research assessment and analytic approaches. This pioneering collection is the definitive volume of international learning sciences scholarship and an essential text for scholars in this area.</p>
