Publisher's Synopsis
The Allyn & Bacon Mind Matters2 CD-ROM helps students explore the core concepts of psychology by combining multimedia with clear explanations of core psychological concepts.
Mind Matters II makes psychology more engaging, interactive, informative and fun! Mind Matters II covers the "core" concepts of psychology through a combination of text, graphics, simulations, video clips of historic experiments, and activities. Assessments test comprehension at both the topic and unit levels.
This CD-ROM contains a wide range of learning opportunities for nine key topic areas of Psychology:
- History and Methods
- Biopsychology
- Sensation
- Perception
- Learning and Memory
- Personality NEW!
- Social Psychology I NEW!
- Social Psychology II NEW!
- Developmental Psychology NEW!
Students have access to activities with immediate scoring and feedback, video clips of historical experiments, animations, simulations, and an interactive glossary. Introductions and conclusions for each unit are provided to place all activities in context. Learning is reinforced through two forms of student assessment, Rapid Reviews after each topic, and more extensive Quick Quizzes after each Unit. Easy navigation allows students to work through each Unit in a linear or non-linear format. The Mind Matters CD-ROM is accompanied by an extensive Faculty Guide, with descriptions of all activities, outlines, text correlation guides, and test questions for each Unit.
Available standalone, or can be packaged with any Allyn & Bacon Introductory Psychology text. See your Allyn & Bacon/Longman representative for details.
