Teacher Information• Types of Files
– This presentation has been saved as a “basic” Powerpoint file. While this file format placed a few limitations on the presentation, it insured the file would be compatible with the many versions of Powerpoint teachers use. To add functionality to the presentation, teachers may want to save the file for their specific version of Powerpoint.
• Animation– Once again, to insure compatibility with all versions of Powerpoint, none
of the slides are animated. To increase student interest, it is suggested teachers animate the slides wherever possible.
• Adding slides to this presentation– Teachers are encouraged to adapt this presentation to their personal
teaching style. To help keep a sense of continuity, blank slides which can be copied and pasted to a specific location in the presentation follow this “Teacher Information” section.
Teacher Information• Domain Coding
– Just as the textbook is organized around the APA National Standards, these Powerpoints are coded to those same standards. Included at the top of almost every slide is a small stripe, color coded to the APA National Standards.
• Scientific Inquiry Domain• Biopsychology Domain• Development and Learning Domain• Social Context Domain• Cognition Domain• Individual Variation Domain• Applications of Psychological Science Domain
• Key Terms and Definitions in Red– To emphasize their importance, all key terms from the text and their
definitions are printed in red. To maintain consistency, the definitions on the Powerpoint slides are identical to those in the textbook.
Teacher Information• Hyperlink Slides - Immediately after the unit title slide, a page (usually
slide #4 or #5) can be found listing all of the module’s subsections. While in slide show mode, clicking on any of these hyperlinks will take the user directly to the beginning of that subsection. This allows teachers quick access to each subsection.
• Continuity slides - Throughout this presentations there are slides, usually of graphics or tables, that build on one another. These are included for three purposes.
