New @psychologytoday.com piece! www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/misi...

Poster includes the following text: What should we really be teaching in undergraduate psychology? The International Competences for Undergraduate Psychology (#ICUP) model defines what foundational competences psychology students should graduate with. The ICUP model helps us, as teachers, ensure that students leave our programes ready to make personal, professional, and societal impact - locally and globally. More info: teaching.sig@pap.ph; @TeachPsychPAP; Teaching Psychology SIG TV; The Teaching Psychology SIG Podcast.

The #ICUP model is recommended by the Psychological Association of the Phillippines (PAP)! Find out more about how the #ICUP can be used alongside your national, regional, or local frameworks for #Psychology #PsychologyEducation, see icupo.org #InternationalCompetencesForUndergraduatePsychology

I like the idea of Vox’s very brief daily newsletter, The Logoff. Just the bare minimum of what you need to know, none of the drama, and then you can log off. So far, it’s delivering on that, and bolstering my sanity: www.vox.com/pages/logoff...

I need a break from science and politics. Vintage Obscura Radio’s posts often make me happy. Like this song. It feels like Debbie Harry should be singing it.
