Three Elon psychology faculty have created 15 modules and an annotated resource guide to teaching about how culture and context affect psychological development. These materials were used in one section of Lifespan Development (PSY 240) in the Spring 2012 semester and will be tested in a more formal pilot during the Fall 2012 semester. FollowShare on Tumblr

Six faculty worked through the 2011-2012 academic year to create topic-specific units to infuse diversity into the Introduction to Psychology (PSY 111) curriculum and to develop a compendium of resources for faculty who teach this course. By creating course materials that better reflect the diversity of human experience, these faculty hope to enhance students’ understanding of psychology. FollowShare on Tumblr

Three Human Service Studies professors are collaborating to infuse The Art and Science of Helping (HSS111) curriculum with a concentration on the importance and implications of human difference. Students now will complete the course with both deeper self-awareness of their own perspectives and significant practice understanding and adopting the perspectives of others. FollowShare on Tumblr
