Abstract
Pedagogical psychology: beyond the 21st century.
Highlights
Specialty section: This article was submitted to Educational Psychology, a section of the journal Frontiers in Psychology
Instead of bringing together articles which share an identifiable common theme, the articles in this issue are connected by an overarching goal—presenting new and sometimes untried approaches. Several papers in this issue discuss the use of virtual agents or virtual reality in teaching
Groher, and Roithmayr show that second language instruction, of vocabulary, can be more efficient through utilizing an intelligent virtual agent (IVA) than through using a human as the instructor
Summary
Specialty section: This article was submitted to Educational Psychology, a section of the journal Frontiers in Psychology. This special topic in Frontiers in Educational Psychology presents papers that exemplify only a few of the emerging theoretical and applied approaches toward pedagogy that aim to produce the competent graduates society expects from its learning institutions. Rather than focusing on pedagogical issues directly relevant to classic classroom content (e.g., basic skills, foundations of chemistry or history), the articles presented here focus on ideas which can form a basis for emerging and future applications.
