The Social Psychology of Teaching, edited by A. Morrison and D. McIntyre, presents a carefully curated collection of readings that examines the classroom as a social system, dissecting the roles, relationships, and dynamics that govern both teaching and learning. The anthology draws on foundational psychological and sociological research to illuminate how teacher attitudes, student behaviour, and institutional structures combine to produce the outcomes we so often take for granted. It scrutinises the subtle forces of authority, conformity, and social reinforcement that operate beneath the surface of every lesson.\n\nAs part of the prestigious Penguin Modern Psychology Readings series, this volume sits within a tradition of making rigorous academic thought accessible to a wider readership — from practising teachers to researchers and educational reformers. Morrison and McIntyre synthesise perspectives from social psychology, sociology, and education theory to construct a compelling argument: that teaching cannot be understood in isolation from the social world in which it is embedded. The result is a landmark text that challenges readers to reconsider the very nature of the teaching profession, leaving one to wonder how much of what occurs in a classroom is truly within a teacher's conscious control.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49269344698587,"sku":"2026200016911-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/ae020399-b961-4eb7-86bd-e5e68595751b.png?v=1788998883","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200016911-secondhand-the-social-psychology-of-teaching","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
