Beginnings & Endings: Best Practices for Introducing and Bringing Closure to the Undergraduate Psychology Major Friday & Saturday, October 12-13, 2007Crowne Plaza Atlanta-Perimeter NW Hotel6345 Powers Ferry RoadAtlanta, GA 30339 REGISTRATION DEADLINE: September 28, 2007 The Society for the Teaching of Psychology (STP, Division 2 of APA), the Society for the History of Psychology (Division 26 of APA), the National Institute on the Teaching of Psychology, and the Kennesaw State University Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning are excited to announce the 6th conference in the popular "Best Practices in Teaching Psychology" series, which started in 2002. Keynote speakers include Ludy Benjamin, Drew Appleby, and Neil Lutsky. Through a combination of symposia, workshops, and poster presentations, the 2007 conference will focus on innovative and effective strategies both on ways we start off majors (e.g., the introductory course, a careers course) and on how we bring closure to the major (e.g., a specially designed capstone course or experience; a senior seminar; a history and systems course; research or applied internships/practicum). Our target audience includes teachers from high school, 2-year and 4-year college/university settings.
