“Developing Skillful Students: A New Integrative Approach to Teaching Content and Skills”

Hosted by Sarah Grison on March 24, 2026

Our students in introductory psychology arrive in our course with diverse experiences, learning habits, and strengths. As teachers, we always want our students to learn psychological concepts. However, at the same time, we can also efficiently and effectively help students develop skills that will help them succeed in our course and beyond.

In this interactive workshop, we will explore an evidence-based approach for updating your existing course to develop students’ skills at the same time as they learn about related psychological concepts. In particular, you will learn practical strategies for helping students strengthen skills in four key areas:

• Learning how to learn
• Developing psychological science literacy
• Thinking critically about psychology
• Applying psychology to your life

By the end of the workshop, you will have a new framework and tools that you can use right away to start helping students develop these skills in ways that support both their success in the course and their lives beyond it.
