Teachers of Psychology in Secondary Schools

Professional development opportunities for high school psychology teachers have traditionally been hard to come by. In the past, the only significant opportunities to see presentations on best practices in the teaching of high school psychology were limited to APA/Clark University Workshop for High School Teachers, the annual APA Convention, the National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS) annual conference or the Advanced Placement Annual Conference. All are outstanding opportunities for professional growth, but typically require significant travel and the latter three require expensive conference fees.
