Hello everyone, I am looking for some help. I am putting together a proposal for a new class, at one of the community colleges, where I teach. It will eventually be going in front of the curriculum committee for approval. This is the first time I have decided to do this. The Dept. Chair is supportive but doesn't have the time to work on this with me. It is to be an introductory Psychobiology class. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Any course curriculum pertaining to this subject would be appreciated. Anything you have currently pertaining to this would be useful! Also what text book could someone recommend? I am a member of the adjunct faculty at a couple of different colleges. I enjoy the biological perspective and it would add to our transferable classes. It would also aid in my quest to end my freeway flying and have a school I could call home. I am forty-five and went back for my M.A. in 1997. I sometimes wonder based on my C.V. if I am considered too old (actual age) or too young (grad. date) for full-time and how to broach the subject, if at all, when I apply for full-time positions. Your feedback would be appreciated. I do love teaching and left a successful business career to follow my heart. I just get a little down regarding the chances of my getting a full time position at one school. I know a Phd. would help but I really don't have the funds at this time. I feel fortunate to be able to have landed a couple of part-time positions right after graduation. But I do long for one college and the time it would give me to become super involved in the Psychology Dept. (there are so many things that could be done). Thanks, Donette Steele M.A. Instructor/Psychology LBCC/ FCC
