This thought-provoking book consolidates insights, theories and practical recommendations for best practice when teaching social psychology. Bringing together a wealth of experts in the field, editors Catherine A. Sanderson and Rebecca R. Totton encourage educators to emphasize the direct connection between social psychology course material and everyday life.

Teaching Social Psychology begins by exploring different teaching philosophies including both team-based learning and PERMA theory, providing instructors with a range of strategies to engage students. Contributing authors then propose practical solutions when integrating diverse perspectives in their teaching, prompting educators to consider the accessibility, inclusivity, and equity of their classroom. The book concludes by presenting assessment and assignment options that focus on exceptional pedagogy. Chapters are designed to be used either in isolation or conjunction, allowing teachers a flexibility and adaptability of approach.



Providing theoretical and practical guidance at all levels, this incisive and accessible book is a key resource for instructors of social psychology. Its recommendations for best pedagogical practice are also beneficial to students, academics and researchers in the field.

Edited by Catherine A. Sanderson, Poler Family Professor of Psychology, Department of Psychology, Amherst College and Rebecca R. Totton, Assistant Professor of Psychology, Department of Psychology, Oberlin College, US
