- Engaging, Supporting, and Challenging Students in Developmental Psychology Courses
| DescriptionDevelopmental psychology courses are becoming an increasingly common part of the required curriculum for a variety of different disciplines. Consequently, increased enrollments also result in an increase in the diversity and needs of the students that merit more than a homogenous, one-size-fits-all approach. This eBook serves as a valuable resource for instructors of introductory developmental courses. Recognizing the diverse needs of students and the breadth of content, it offers adaptable approaches to course design and structure, alongside innovative and engaging learning activities. The book is organized into two major sections focusing on approaches to course design and structure as well as innovative and engaging learning activities. Within each major section, chapters are grouped roughly by themes in subsections. ISBN: 978-1-941804-79-7 Download e-book PDF (4.84 Mb)Supplemental Resources |
