APA Psychology Posters

The American Psychological Association's Education Directorate has produced four posters for classroom use. The posters can be downloaded off the APA's website and then printed. For more information, with links to the posters, go to http://www.apa.org/ed/precollege/undergrad/classroom-posters.aspx.

I (Kent) would like to thank Daria Schaffeld (daria.schaffeld@d214.org), Prospect High School, Mt. Prospect, IL for providing the original idea behind this posting and all the work she has done as the NCSS Psychology Community Chair.
