Full Description
This in-depth book provides practical strategies and resources for teaching a foundational introduction to psychology course in line with the American Psychological Association Introductory Psychology Initiative. Expert instructors share their innovative pedagogical approaches to fostering a positive learning environment.
Teaching Introduction to Psychology is separated into three distinct thematic sections each with chapters which can be used together or separately, allowing educators the flexibility to select and implement content that aligns with their courses. The first section explores effective course structures and class management techniques, encouraging positive connections between educators and their students. The second section emphasizes the importance of inclusion, diversity, equity, and access in the content and delivery of the course, as well as in the teaching environment. In the final section, contributors provide innovative ideas for assignments and assessments that both maintain rigor and effectively engage students, covering topics such as social media, story-telling and the paranormal.
An invaluable resource for psychology instructors at any career stage, and any type of institution, Teaching Introduction to Psychology provides the tools necessary to build a rigorous yet welcoming foundational course for all students.
