Full Description
In teaching undergraduate psychology, both new and experienced instructors are eager to find ways to engage students in learning and generate excitement for the subject matter. This valuable instructional resource presents a framework for constructing undergraduate psychology curricula to meet all of these objectives, while ensuring maximum flexibility across faculty, student, and institutional differences.
Promoting active and enduring learning within a constructivist educational context, this book links successful teaching practices to five APA-approved learning goals - knowledge base of psychology, research methods, critical thinking skills, application of psychology, and values - and the behaviorally stated outcomes associated with each.
