A CAREER IN TEACHING AND LEARNING

PSYCHOLOGY

https://www.apa.org/education-career/guide/subfields/teaching-learning/education-training

The psychology of teaching and learning helps us understand the

social, emotional and cognitive processes that constitute learning
throughout the lifespan.

All About Teaching and Learning

In studying how people learn, psychologists have found we don’t all do

it the same way. Some children may need to hear the ABC song to
remember the order of the alphabet, while others need to see the
letters written out. Even as we age, some of us will learn better by
seeing, while others learn through doing.

Teaching and learning psychologists dissect these differences,

studying not only how people learn, but how they retain and remember
new information.

The learning process is also affected by the learning, family and social
environment, genetic inheritance and rate of development. These
factors translate into variations in intelligence, creativity, cognitive style,
motivation and the capacity to process information, communicate and
relate to others.

Teaching and learning psychologists develop and apply theories of

human development to They work with people who are gifted and
people who have learning disabilities. Their skills are critical as schools
work harder to ensure academic success.

What You Can Do

Many teaching and learning psychologists conduct research that is

relevant to education. They may look at how well people learn in
certain settings with certain types of instructions and certain types of
instructors. This research helps develop improved teaching techniques
that can bolster student outcomes and school performance.

Teaching and learning psychologists also evaluate and analyze

teaching methods, testing them in schools, community organizations
and learning centers. With their training in educational psychology,
these psychologists can pinpoint flaws or problems that may make it
difficult for some people to learn. Such problems can range from the
pace of instruction to textbook organization.

Teaching and learning psychologists may also take the same

psychological principles and apply them to government, industry and
the private sector. Since people never stop learning, psychologists can
use their scientific research to help students of all ages learn new skills
in varied environments.

Making It Happen

With a four-year bachelor’s degree, a person seeking a career in

educational psychology or teaching and learning psychology often
begins with a position that becomes a pathway job to more education
and a job with more responsibility.

A master’s in educational psychology (MEd) is the next step for many.

A doctorate in educational psychology or school psychology opens the
door to more career possibilities, including positions at universities or
with the government. This degree usually requires a four- to six-year
commitment.

employed in such settings as schools or testing companies. Many work
