Psychology: Concepts and Applications - Tapa dura

Sinopsis

This text offers a concept-based approach with each chapter organized into discrete learning units or modules. This approach helps students focus on one topic at a time within the context of a larger chapter structure. Concept-signaling, a unique pedagogy embedded within a complete learning system, introduces students to the same concept in a number of different ways?through figures, charts, or marginal inserts?in addition to an explanation integrated into the text. Within each unit, in-text tools help them encode, retain, and recall complex information.

Each unit contains a number of learning tools, such as Key Concepts that help students identify and recall the main issues in each module; Survey Questions to test and reinforce learning in the chapter summary; Concept Charts to summarize and review material visually to provide a relational connection; Think About It features that pose thought-provoking questions to sharpen critical-thinking skills; and Try This Out! features that offer service learning suggestions, self-assessment questionnaires, and hands-on activities. Review It and Recall It sections at the end of each module ensure that students take the time to review the material and test their knowledge by completing a short quiz.
