Abstract	The purpose of the book is to provide teachers of psychology access to teaching techniques that epitomize "happy tact and ingenuity." The principle influence that teachers have on student behavior occurs in the classroom since, as noted by Erickson and Strommer, (1991), today's students spend relatively little time studying outside of class. When college teachers think about student engagement, they suggest that engaged students really want to learn, exceed expectations, and demonstrate passion and excitement (Barkley, 2009). In this book, the reader will find a host of ideas that should help create passion and excitement in the classroom. In this book, the authors describe engagement techniques that address topics within the context of a particular course in psychology. Each chapter provides an annotated bibliography of activities published elsewhere as well as a new unpublished activity that the author has used. The annotated bibliography outlines exercises and demonstrations that enhance student engagement relevant to the topic area that have been published in TOPS, the "Handbooks for Teaching Psychology," as well as activities recommended in various Instructor's manuals and those available through OTRP. The book is divided into five sections. The first section describes activities that can be used in the social, developmental, environmental, organizational, and cross-cultural psychology. The second section describes activities that can be used to teach sensation and perception, cognitive psychology, intelligence, language and related topics. In the third section, the editors offer teaching techniques relevant to biological psychology, research methods and related topics, as well as history and systems courses. Abnormal behavior, personality, gender and adjustment are all addressed in Section 4. Section 5 is devoted to activities that can be used in more than one course and include topics such as diversity, critical thinking, positive psychology and APA style writing.
