EDPY A235 - McMurtrie -: Finding works connecting theorist to learning/education
Article databases are the best place to locate articles that discuss your theorist and education.
*Search hint: try searching for your theorist's last name AND education or try last name AND learning
For example, if I was trying to find information about Kurt Lewin's influence on education, I would search for Lewin and education and then also try Lewin and learning.
Below are recommended databases for finding information connecting your theorist to education and/or learning.
