Utilizing popular press books can increase accessibility and aid in retention of marginalized groups; by increasing student engagement, improving material accessibility through real-world examples, and helping ease the financial burden of textbooks. The current article outlines how several popular press books have been successfully implemented in different levels of neuroscience coursework, including an introductory neuroscience course, a mid-level drugs and behavior course, and a senior seminar. Implementation strategies and pitfalls are discussed, including best practices for assessment and incorporation of popular press books into course material.
使用大众出版社出版的书籍可以提高边缘化群体的可及性并有助于他们记住知识;通过提高学生的参与度,利用现实世界的例子提高材料的可及性,并帮助减轻教科书的经济负担。本文概述了几本大众出版社出版的书籍如何在不同层次的神经科学课程中成功实施,包括一门神经科学入门课程、一门中级药物与行为课程和一门高级研讨课。文中讨论了实施策略和陷阱,包括将大众出版社出版的书籍纳入课程材料的评估和整合的最佳做法。
