A web-based textbook/course created by Lumen Learning.

Nurture, and theories and practices for working with K-12 youth.

This books lays the foundation for prospective teachers to learn about various teaching methodologies and covers material typically found in many teacher training programs. Chapters in the text can be assigned either from beginning to end, as with a conventional printed book, or they can be selected in some other sequence to meet the needs of particular students or classes. In general the first half of the book focuses on broader questions and principles taken from psychology per se, and the second half focuses on somewhat more practical issues of teaching. But the division between “theory” and “practice” is only approximate; all parts of the book draw on research, theory, and practical wisdom wherever appropriate. Chapter 2 is about learning theory, and Chapter 3 is about development; but as we point out, these topics overlap with each other as well as with the concerns of daily teaching. Chapter 4 is about several forms of student diversity (what might be called individual differences in another context), and Chapter 5 is about one form of diversity that has become prominent in schools recently—students with disabilities. Chapter 6 is about motivation, a topic that is heavily studied by psychological researchers, but that also poses perennial challenges to classroom teachers.

An Introduction to Searching the UofA Library Sources of Information
Short Description: The manual’s purpose is to give students the foundational knowledge necessary to start searching for information in Educational Psychology using the University of Alberta Library’s catalog and databases. The manual contains step by step instructions, videos, and examples. The successful completion of the learning objectives will depend on spending sufficient time reading through the manual, answering the exercise questions, and reviewing the examples whenever necessary, which should take at least one hour and a half of uninterrupted time.

This course is premised on the belief that emotions are a fundamental part of human nature. Accordingly, understanding emotions and incorporating emotions into our research can help us better explain variation in important political phenomena. Research on emotions and how emotions can influence decision-making has dramatically increased over the past two decades. This class aims to pick up on new findings from psychology and other disciplines and marshal this knowledge toward the most important issues of political science.

These materials aim to start introducing OER to the course as well as to develop the culturally responsive dimension of the course. This is the first time using the OER textbook (Psychology 2e), so the discussion board activities are designed to pilot the textbook, get feedback from the students, and generate a ‘living anthology’ of supplementary/complementary materials that correspond to students’ experiences and interests. The activities described below are used during the first two weeks of the course. Each activity includes a Main Discussion Post and then ‘Comments’ on a classmate’s post. The grading rubrics used for assessment are included in Appendix D. The video lectures and chapter notes need further work in terms of accessibility and using copyrighted materials. The changes that have been made will serve students more equitably by decreasing financial burden and better corresponding to/representing students’ perspectives and experiences.

Students will be exposed to all aspects of a cutting-edge technique in modern electrophysiology, in a highly structured, team oriented environment. The research projects will probe the neural mechanisms of learning and memory through tetrode array recordings coupled with patterned microstimulation. Due to the broad nature of tasks to be completed, coupled with the team oriented approach we will be employing, we are interested in students with a wide variety of laboratory experience and skill levels.

Fear is a physiological, behavioral, and emotional reaction to stimuli that an animal encounters (Horwitz, 2013). In many species across the animal kingdom, the physiological reaction results in an increase in heart rate, increased respiratory rate (panting), sweating, trembling, pacing, and possibly urination and defecation. Fear is an appropriate response to environments and stimuli that are potentially harmful to the animal, which could utilize a creature’s fight or flight response and preserve its life. In this resource, fear of human and nonhuman animals, along with potential treatments for fear disorders, is explored and reviewed.

This course is a seminar on creativity in art, science, and technology. We discuss how these pursuits are jointly dependent on affective as well as cognitive elements in human nature. We study feeling and imagination in relation to principles of idealization, consummation, and the aesthetic values that give meaning to science and technology as well as literature and the other arts. Readings in philosophy, psychology, and literature are part of the course.
