New ToPIX Content: 6/21/12

This week we had an update to the Pedagogy section, some more on the “The Why and The How of Songs in the Classroom”, and some updates to the ToPIX Song List.

New ToPIX Content

A number of new (and classic!) songs and concepts were added to the Song list courtesy of Jeff Henriques and Steve Jones. Thanks to both of you! Use your internet browser’s “Find Text” function to search the song list by unit, concept, artist, song title, or year. Or, simply scroll through the growing list. Please e-mail any other suggestions (or songs) for the ToPIX Song List to ToPIX@TeachPsych.org.

Some of the challenges to using songs in the classroom (and ways to overcome them) are now included on the page Songs in the classroom: The why and the how

Jeff Henriques contributed to the Pedagogy section by adding some Ways to Use Scoring Rubrics for Student Work and Program Assessment. Thanks Jeff!

As always—if you have found ToPIX useful, please consider contributing! You are welcome to update the wiki yourself or drop me an email at TOPIX@TeachPsych.org.
