About the Supplement

These supplemental readings and resources were developed to accompany Introduction to Psychology: Moving Towards Diversity and Inclusion.

The Deep Dives provide detailed exploration of subjects, exploring the latest scientific research and developments. These sections offer resources for building assessments and projects that require critical thinking, analysis, and application of psychological principles. They also link to other relevant resources, provide a preview of what is covered in 2nd- or 3rd-year courses, or cover topics that are often included in mainstream introductory psychology textbooks but were moved out of the main narrative in this book to conserve word count. Assign Deep Dives to individual learners or learner teams for presentations during breakout discussions, fostering peer-to-peer learning and engagement.

The Case Studies illustrate how psychological concepts apply in real-world scenarios. These can be used in assessments and projects that bridge theoretical knowledge and practical application. Case Studies provide step-by-step illustrations that can enhance lesson plans and facilitate a deeper understanding of psychological theories. Assign Case Studies to groups or individual learners for presentations or discussions, creating opportunities for collaborative learning and problem-solving.
