MASTERFUL EXPLANATIONS OF CONTEMPORARY RESEARCH MOTIVATE STUDENTS TO LEARN

David Funder uses his masterful writing style to cover the latest research in personality psychology and help students see the relevance to their own lives. The Eighth Edition now includes a new chapter on relationships and work, and new important coverage of replication and open science issues. The chapters on relationships, work and health (i.e., Part VII) show students how personality psychology can be applied to the real world.

INQUIZITIVE USES RESEARCH-PROVEN TECHNIQUES TO IMPROVE STUDENT LEARNING

Developed by a psychologist, InQuizitive is based on research-backed psychological principles. Motivating game-like elements engage students in active learning and drive them back into the text when they need to review. Personalised questions, a variety of interactive question types and answer-specific feedback help students grasp course concepts faster. As a result, students show up to class better prepared and instructors have more time for incorporating active learning and applications.

AN EXPANDED INSTRUCTOR SUPPORT PACKAGE GIVES INSTRUCTORS THE TOOLS THEY NEED TO ENGAGE STUDENTS IN ACTIVE LEARNING

The Interactive Instructor’s Guide has been enhanced for the Eighth Edition with even better instructor support. In addition to video links and new classroom activities, the Eighth Edition IIG will provide 3–5 new Discussion Questions for each chapter, giving instructors ample options for sparking course discussions, online or in the classroom. InQuizitive further enhances our support for active-learning by ensuring that students come to class armed with the fundamental knowledge required for engaging in discussions and activities.
