TEACHING PHYSIOLOGICAL-PSYCHOLOGY IN A MULTIMEDIA CLASSROOM

In this article, I describe techniques wed for teaching Physiological Psychology in a 104-student multimedia classroom that includes two computers and an array of permanently mounted audiovasual equipment. Lectures are illustrated with computer-generated text, graphics, animations, and video clips. Keypads mounted on student desks tabulate individual student responses to questions posed to the class. Use of the keypads promotes active learning in a large lecture class because each student formulates an individual answer to every question.
