Psychology Teacher's Resource Book. First Course.
American Psychological Association, Washington, DC.
A comprehensive review of resources for teaching introductory high school psychology courses provides information on all types of teaching materials, resources, and techniques. The texts reviewed sample a wide range of emphases, content, and reading levels. Books of readings offer valuable information to both instructor and student. Laboratory manuals are classified by such features as required equipment, knowledge of statistics, and content focus. A review of selected periodicals is followed by a bibliography of easy to read, high appeal books. In choosing among the audiovisual materials, those reviewed are listed by comprehensive sources to provide commentary on film, videotape, slide, and audiotape series. A list of currently available books and articles can be used to supplement usual sources of information or as a guide to develop a library collection. Numerous equipment manufacturers are noted, and addresses of national organizations are provided. A section on ways of increasing student involvement illustrates the possible classroom approaches and procedures, while teaching strategies and styles discussed in the following section suggest ways of organizing instruction. Each of the sections has its own reference list. An appendix of publishers' addresses and an author index conclude the resource book. (KSM)
