Psychology Learning and Teaching


This publication aims to inform and encourage good practice in the teaching and learning of Psychology within Higher Education. It is circulated free to all lecturers in UK HE who wish to receive a copy, and in consequence its content is aimed at the general reader. It will primarily be a publication for practitioners, although naturally we wish to encourage the dialogue between research and practice. We see the journal as complementary to the existing journal of the BPS Division for Teachers and Researchers in Psychology, Psychology Teaching Review.
