Here is a concise handbook of trustworthy, research-based information about learning and teaching for those interested in homeschooling. It is also very helpful for teachers in other arenas such as private schools, public schools, and church education programs. Exhaustive coverage is not the goal, but a concise, user-friendly guide is. Chapters cover: theories of learning, academic ability, personality factors, choosing curriculum, motivation, discipline, testing, physically designing a learning area Homeschooling can be used as a user-friendly text for a college-level course on homeschooling. It contains most of the topics included in a traditional educational psychology textbook, but is written in simpler language and includes applications for homeschooling.
