http://teachpsych.pbworks.com/ In the last week, ToPIX had 366 visitors. Welcome back to the 173 returning visitors, and welcome to the 193 new visitors! New : http://teachpsych.pbworks.com/APA-Assignment Scott Bates posted an assignment he gives his students on APA-style. http://teachpsych.pbworks.com/Books The 'Books' page continues to be developed with book descriptions and links to relevant webpages, such as TED talks given by the authors. Thank you to Deanna Douglas for her work on this page this week! STP's Best Practices conference this fall will focus on assessment (http://teachpsych.org/conferences/bp). In recognition of this conference, ToPIX now contains more assessment-related content. With the ten APA learning goals as a structure, the relevant AAC&U VALUE rubrics are now available as links at ToPIX. Have a rubric or other means of assessing students on these learning goals? Add it to the site! http://teachpsych.pbworks.com/Assessment-of-Research-Methods-in-Psycholo gy http://teachpsych.pbworks.com/Assessment-of-Critical-Thinking-Skills-in- Psychology http://teachpsych.pbworks.com/Assessment-of-the-Application-of-Psycholog y http://teachpsych.pbworks.com/Assessment-of-Values-in-Psychology http://teachpsych.pbworks.com/Assessment-of-Information-and-Technologica l-Literacy http://teachpsych.pbworks.com/Assessment-of-Communication-Skills http://teachpsych.pbworks.com/Assessment-of-Sociocultural--International -Awareness If you haven't seen Tom Pusateri's revised Assessment Cyberguide, it's a must-read for anyone interested in revising their assessment process.
