Document Summary
Psyc 3800 exam study notes: according to the textbook this statement means that a lot of the time people will assume and see educational psychology as common sense. For example when presented with a tactic a common response it that everybody knows that: seeing research results in writing can make them seem obvious but in many cases they are not. For example, in the textbook a study by wong where she switched 6 of the 12 obvious statements into incorrect answers, when presented with the statements many students and teachers thought/believed that all the statements were true and obvious. A new field knowledge mobilization is the perfect example, since the last decade the field has exploded with new studies and more research. The issue lies with the relationship of knowledge/research and it actually being put to use into practise, this gaps of transform makes it hard to implement in the classroom. (from article)
