CABE Teaching Resources Award

Sponsors: Committee on Associate and Baccalaureate Education (CABE)

The CABE Teaching Resources Award serves to encourage the development and dissemination of teaching resource materials in order to enhance the teaching of undergraduate psychology. Consistent with a goal within American Psychological Association's Strategic Plan to prepare the discipline and profession of psychology for the future, the Committee is particularly interested in receiving teaching resources that include evidence-based authentic learning assignments that encourage scientific inquiry and critical thinking (Goal 2 of the APA Guidelines for the Undergraduate Psychology Major 3.0). Resources can include but are not limited to those that include the use of AI or other technology tools. Please refer to the scoring rubric for evaluation criteria.

All submissions will also promote APA Project Assessment because awardees will have an opportunity to have their work included in this digital repository of resources.

Number of Awards: A maximum of two awards of $250 each will be given. Each will be presented to recognize submissions that advance quality in the teaching of psychology at the undergraduate level. Additionally, submitted resources that have substantial merit, but that did not win the monetary award, may earn an honorable mention (no monetary award) and may be disseminated by CABE, with the author credited. Applicants are invited to submit multiple teaching activities. However, an applicant may only receive one monetary award.

The APA Committee on Associate and Baccalaureate Education (CABE) affirms its commitment to supporting the APA's Racial Equity Action Plan. (PDF, 1.3MB)
