Skills in Action modules end each module cluster (see Modules 6, 11, 16, 22, 26, etc.), taking students beyond learning psychology as a set of facts to learning psychology skills that make a difference in their lives and careers. Topics include information literacy, behaving ethically, giving memorable presentations, leadership and many others.
While modules may be covered in any order, they are still richly interlinked in this edition to illustrate the interconnectedness of the field of psychology.
The modules are consistent with new American Psychological Association (APA) learning outcomes for introductory psychology as well as the broader APA Guidelines for the Undergraduate Psychology Major. For instructors who are working toward state- or department-specified learning outcomes that fall within these parameters, the content and organization of the text make it easy to demonstrate a commitment to meeting these objectives.
Providing insight that is both practical and applicable to students, the authors relate course material to everyday life with an engaging style and frequent use of familiar, relevant analogies.
