Class Specifications

Abstract:

Statistics and research methods are core components of both Advanced Placement and undergraduate psychology curricula. Yet, these courses are often challenging for many students. This book offers original, pedagogically sound, classroom-tested activities that engage students, teach principles, and inspire teachers. Each chapter contains classroom exercises that are practical and easily implemented, and help students learn core principles in ways that are fun and engaging. Chapters illustrate basic concepts like variance and standard deviation, correlation, p-values and effect sizes, as well as teaching strategies for identifying confounding factors, recognizing bias, constructing surveys, and understanding the ethics of behavioral research.
