Themed Issue: Experiential Teaching Practices in Undergraduate Community Psychology
The Journal of Prevention and Intervention in the Community (JPIC) is planning a themed issue on experiential teaching practices in undergraduate community psychology courses. Unfortunately, many undergraduates earn a four-year degree in psychology without being exposed to community psychology. Engaging community psychology courses for undergraduates not only introduces them to the field, but also ensures the continued growth and diversification of community psychology. Undergraduate students often find experiential learning to be more enjoyable, informative, and useful in comparison to traditional lecture-based classroom models. Further, experiential learning methodologies embody the values of our field, and complement the increased focus at many higher learning institutions on community engagement and service learning. The goal of this themed issue is to disseminate best practices in experiential teaching of community psychology at the undergraduate level. This issue will present a cross-section of teaching practices that provide undergraduates in community psychology and related courses with experiential learning opportunities. As a component of the issue, we are soliciting manuscripts which highlight the learning experiences of students in their own voice; therefore, we are only considering manuscripts which include qualitative feedback from one or more undergraduate students.
Submissions are accepted four times a year. For specific due dates, contact the S-L office.
