Psychology as a subject is more popular in secondary schools than ever before, but achieving deep insights into, and appreciation of, the complexity of human behaviour is a challenge that requires expert guidance and teaching. In addition to teaching the often demanding subject content on their specifications, Psychology teachers must also be experts in inculcating mathematical skills and written communication. All this in students who often start without any prior experience of the subject. This poses serious challenges for teachers' subject knowledge, pedagogy and planning. And yet, until now, little has been written about how to teach Psychology effectively. This book aims to help anyone facing that challenge. Drawing on a wealth of psychological and pedagogical insights, coupled with years of teaching experience, Paul Cline and Mike Hobbiss provide practical advice and concrete suggestions to support Psychology teachers at all levels. From curriculum choices to the minutiae of in-class decisions, from developing as an individual teacher to leading a Psychology department, this book provides the complete, evidence-informed guide to teaching Psychology.
