Hi all,
A summary of the newest ToPIX content can be found on the STP blog: http://teachpsych.blogspot.com/2011/03/new-topix-content-3212011.html. And here's something new for us to work on. Many of us try to engage our students so that they think more deeply about the content of psychology. If you have an online discussion forum of some kind, you may pose discussion questions to your students. For those of us who teach face-to-face, we may have discussion questions we ask our students in class. Lee Clark suggested to me that this would be useful content for ToPIX. What discussion questions do you use? Let's start with learning, memory, and cognition: http://titanpad.com/QWyf2n6I5Q. This isn't just for Intro Psych, either. If you teach an upper division course in these topics, please post your favorite discussion questions. Mark them with an asterisk so I can designate them as such when I add them to ToPIX. See a sample of how the questions will look in ToPIX by visiting the "In the Classroom: Memory" page: http://topix.teachpsych.org/w/page/23213805/Memory-in-the-Classroom.
