Summary: | In this directory, we have tried to assemble a considerable amount of information about innovative teaching in psychology and distribute it widely in a relatively short period of time. It will be obvious that this is not intended to be an authoritative treatise on teaching, but rather a readily useable reference work. As indicated in the table of contents, this directory is divided into two major sections: the first specifies the various categories of innovations and the second consists of descriptions of the innovations themselves. In the first section, each category definition is followed by a list of the titles of innovations falling into that category, together with the page number where the detailed description for each innovation can be found. In the second section, each detailed description appears on the front side of a page, with the relevant biographical and institutional information for that innovation on the back. If you are interested in a particular kind of innovation, check the table of contents for the various categories, read the category descriptions in the text to better determine the nature of the innovations listed in that category, and read the listings following the most appropriate category description, turning to the pages corresponding to the titles of most interest to you. If you are interested in innovations within a particular content area, check the table of contents for the location of the particular content area and check the "All Fields" and "Multiple Listings" pages for material which may have relevance for that content area.
