Psych 101 Instructors complete summer institute

PSY 101 is changing! Starting Fall 25, all Intro Psych instructors will be teaching their own course to satisfy the CLOs established by the department and the college. To prepare for this major change, 7 full-time and 8 part-time instructors participated in a 2-day summer institute led by Renee Dimino, Meghan Glaser, and Terry Shamblin and focused on metacognition, backward design, and assessment. Department faculty members who teach PSY 101 heard from guest speakers, publishers, and learned from colleagues methods and techniques to design effective introductory courses. We are excited to bring our ideas and methods to students this Fall, and to continue our participation in this evolution through reflective practice groups!
