Good Afternoon: The Society for the Teaching of Psychology (STP), the National Institute on the Teaching of Psychology (NITOP), and the Kennesaw State University Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (CETL) are excited to announce the fourth conference in the popular "Best Practices in Teaching Psychology" series. Following the successful Assessment (2002), Teaching Introductory Psychology (2003), and Teaching Statistics and Research Methods (2004) conferences, the 2005 conference will focus on innovative and effective strategies and techniques for teaching critical thinking across the psychology curriculum.
The 2-day conference will be held at the Crowne Plaza Atlanta-Perimeter NW Hotel. Modeled after the format of the previous conferences, the meeting will include keynote speakers (Carole Wade and Jane Halonen), concurrent symposia and workshops, and a poster session. Our target audience includes teachers from high school, 2-year, 4-year college/university, and graduate school settings. The conference Web site includes the full schedule (including session abstracts) and registration information (see http://www.kennesaw.edu/cetl/criticalthinking/ccindex.htm). The conference announcement brochure will be mailed to STP members by mid to late July. Because previous conferences have filled close to capacity, we encourage early registration to ensure a space.
