Abstract

Interdisciplinary research indicates what approaches are more likely to help engage students, increase their motivation, develop rapport, and help them learn. In this practical guide for the teachers of psychology, the authors summarize the research in several domains and go a step further to describe practical ways to implement the best practices in face-to-face, hybrid, and online settings. More than a research summary, and more than just a practical compilation of teaching tips, this book takes a holistic approach to support teachers from the design of their courses to the development of goals, the creation of activities and assignments and finally ends with assessment. The aim is to support both experienced and novice teachers by providing professional development that allows them to give their students the best educational experiences possible.
