Purpose
College is challenging and requires quite a lot of adjustment. For example, a student may be faced with the challenge of balancing social life with academic responsibility or with dealing with the feelings of new roles and more complex relationships. In fact, college students may never be as aware of their own motivations and emotions until they are faced with some of these new situations. The purpose of this project is to help you reflect on your own experiences as a college student, in light of psychological theories of motivation and emotion.

This resource includes a video lecture covering empirical and molecular formulas.  The practice worksheet has 5 problems converting percentages into binary empirical formulas and 10 problems converting empirical formulas to molecular formulas.  An answer key is included. This resource corresponds to Chemistry Atoms First 2e section 6.2https://openstax.org/books/chemistry-atoms-first-2e/pages/6-2-determining-empirical-and-molecular-formulas

EmpoWord is a reader and rhetoric that champions the possibilities of student writing. The textbook uses actual student writing to exemplify effective writing strategies, celebrating dedicated college writing students to encourage and instruct their successors: the students in your class. Through both creative and traditional activities, readers are encouraged to explore a variety of rhetorical situations to become more critical agents of reading, writing, speaking, and listening in all facets of their lives. Straightforward and readable instruction sections introduce key vocabulary, concepts, and strategies. Three culminating assignments (Descriptive Personal Narrative; Text-Wrestling Analysis; Persuasive Research Essay) give students a chance to show their learning while also practicing rhetorical awareness techniques for future writing situations.

People often think that the way we see, hear, and remember is like a video camera that reliably captures and stores every detail of our experience. Instead, the way we perceive the world and remember events is, in a very real sense, shaped by the sum of our experiences. As a result, we tend to see what we expect to see.

Exploring American Government is a workbook aimed at improving student and faculty experiences with open educational resources (OER) designed for undergraduate American government courses. The first pages of Exploring American Government begin by motivating and orienting students to learn about politics. Instructors will recognize the familiar layout of the following chapters. We begin by encouraging students to assess their existing knowledge of the subject and evaluate contemporary problems of civic engagement and challenges for the digital age. The following chapters seek to prepare students for informed participation, exploring topics such as constitutional development, federalism, civil liberties and civil rights, participation, public opinion, media, and institutions. Topic by topic, the assignments in the workbook help students discover new sources of information, retain knowledge about how the government works, and practice their critical thinking skills.

This article covers the ethics of care, relational theory, and the history of feminism.

Final project examples intended to illustrate the integrative nature of the course, provide objective evidence of their understanding of learning outcomes of PSYC 2301, and apply objective and subjective information from the entire course to scientific research.
