PsycLearn was developed in a three-step process: defining measurable learning objectives, using Bloom’s Taxonomy to identify how content mastery will be assessed, and finally designing content to address both. These key principles inform every PsycLearn course:

• Immerse students

  • PsycLearn drives deeper engagement than traditional textbooks by immersing students in multidimensional learning experiences with engaging content for practice and assessment. Content comes alive as students apply what they’ve learned to real-life scenarios. Students experience the course material in multiple formats and engage in embedded practice activities in focused application.

• Personalise learning

  • In PsycLearn, students are frequently prompted to both retrieve information from memory and check their understanding of new material, following personalised learning paths. After each new concept, PsycLearn integrates a formative assessment that gives students immediate feedback and visibility into their understanding. Students also evaluate how well they grasp new topics by positioning a slider tool on a scale, receiving additional content for support as needed. Instructors can view data that helps them deepen learning through targeted instruction and enhancing synchronous instruction.

• Enrich instruction

  • PsycLearn’s data dashboard offers instructors insight into students’ progress, learning paths and performance on assessments. Use PsycLearn’s communication tools to work with students one-on-one where they are struggling, or address problem areas during class sessions. Because students see learning objectives and an introductory video at the start of each module, expectations are clear. Instructors are free to devote class time to more in-depth application and analysis, with downloadable learning activities aligning to each course module available directly from the instructor dashboard.
