Book Cover

This is the companion website to the textbook Psychology in Action: An introductory text (2004) . It is a ready-to-use, effortless online resource that provides an interactive element to the textbook. All of the material found on this site is completely integrated with the textbook contents.

This website has the following features:

  • A home page always full of media stories relating directly to the Psychology in Action content

  • Completely free and instant downloads of additional resources such as fact sheets, classroom activities, newspaper articles, powerpoint presentations, student worksheets and information sheets for each chapter
  • A Teachers Only section which provides restricted access to resources such as tests
  • Ideas for using the material in each chapter to take a "detour" and explore related concepts
  • Relevant weblinks for each chapter
  • Lists of relevant books and movies/documentaries for each chapter
  • The establishment of a Psychology in Action Community
  • An opportunity for teachers within the Community to share resources
  • An opportunity for teachers and students to provide feedback on both the textbook content and it's application to the classroom

  • This website will be constantly updated with new resources, from both the authors and the community of teachers already teaching the Psychology in Action course. So be sure to visit regularly!

    Psychology in Action is uniquely flexible. As there are no external exams to teach for or criteria for assessment, what is studied and how many 'detours' are taken can be decided by teachers and their students. The material in Psychology in Action can therefore be taught as a full year, half year or term only subject and would compliment any general science curriculum.
