Subject: [POD] Conference on Teaching Critical Thinking in Psychology
Good Afternoon:
The Society for the Teaching of Psychology (STP), the National Institute
on the Teaching of Psychology (NITOP), and the Kennesaw State University
Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (CETL) are excited to
announce the fourth conference in the popular "Best Practices in
Teaching Psychology" series. Following the successful Assessment (2002),
Teaching Introductory Psychology (2003), and Teaching Statistics and
Research Methods (2004) conferences, the 2005 conference will focus on
innovative and effective strategies and techniques for teaching critical
thinking across the psychology curriculum.
The 2-day conference will be held at the Crowne Plaza Atlanta-Perimeter
NW Hotel. Modeled after the format of the previous conferences, the
meeting will include keynote speakers (Carole Wade and Jane Halonen),
concurrent symposia and workshops, and a poster session. Our target
audience includes teachers from high school, 2-year, 4-year
college/university, and graduate school settings.
The conference Web site includes the full schedule (including session
abstracts) and registration information (see
http://www.kennesaw.edu/cetl/criticalthinking/ccindex.htm). The
conference announcement brochure will be mailed to STP members by mid to
late July.
Because previous conferences have filled close to capacity, we encourage
early registration to ensure a space.
Bill
