Summary/Abstract: The goal of psychology of education is to optimize and increase the efficiency of educational activity through the study of actors involved in the learning process and the relationship established among them. The psychology of education helps us understand the content of the field of study (how it may be adapted to the age of the pupils/students/adults; how could it be better structured and made more accessible; how the frame could be created in which the „actors” could easily apply or transfer their information or skills to other fields of study), the organization of the learning process – how to adapt teaching methods to mental particularities of the pupils/students/adults (teaching style and learning style) – and human diversity that the teacher or trainer must work with (do the pupils/students/adults have the aptitudes and the motivation needed for learning?; can someone work with a group of unmotivated persons? what can be done to solve or change these kinds of situations?). Last but not least, through the study of psychology of education, the future teachers/trainers will find the arguments for their own methodological achievements.
