APA regularly develops resources to support undergraduate educators in their teaching and mentoring of students. APA’s undergraduate psychology resources can help you align your departmental policies and curriculum with APA’s policy documents related to undergraduate education; transform your introductory psychology course through access to free pre-recorded webinars and sample syllabi; and gain free access to a collaboratively developed digital library of learning assessments (e.g., assignments, quizzes, evaluations) designed to help psychology instructors demonstrate evidence of teaching and learning effectiveness.
The resources available here also offer guidance on incorporating the science of learning into your courses to promote student success; supporting students in their career exploration and help them to understand how their skills, degree, experiences, and brand prepare them to land a job or enter a field of graduate study that is the right fit for them; and annual awards for educators and undergraduate students.
