High Impact Project

Dr. Stevens was instrumental in leading the adoption of an Open Textbook for the Introduction to Psychology and Neuroscience courses (PSYO 1011/1012/1031/1032) at Â鶹´«Ã½. She was the recipient of Â鶹´«Ã½â€™s first OER grant and she worked with Dr. Jennifer Stamp and current students to adapt and edit a custom textbook that fully supports the needs of the Intro program. Check out the most up-to-date version of the textbook here:
