Description

The podcast of the Association for Psychological Science. What does science tell us about the way we think, behave, and learn about the world around us? Under the Cortex is supported by Macmillan Learning Psychology: In the classroom--whether in person or on screen-content matters. But not if students are disinterested, disengaged. At Macmillan Learning Psychology our authors are committed educators who know firsthand what teachers are facing today. That experience guides not only the books they write, but the interactive learning and assessment tools they help create. No matter how you teach, we can help you captivate your students. Macmillan Learning Psychology. Engaging Every Student. Supporting Every Instructor. Setting the New Standard for Teaching and Learning
