For the Instructor

Instructor's Manual by Teresa Hutchens, Ph.D., University of Tennessee and Test Bank by Patti Price, Ph.D., Wingate University

The Instructor's Manual to accompany the sixth edition of Human Development Across the Lifespan includes new teaching ideas for each chapter, as well as a summary outline, learning objectives, key terms, lecture suggestions, classroom or student activities, and questions for review and discussion. In addition, we have included supplementary resources for both video/ film and Web site use for the human development instructor. The summary outline and learning objectives closely follow the text and highlight important concepts and topics from each chapter. The learning objectives are also used in the test bank to help instructors select supporting questions. Key terms from the text are listed to show which terms need to be emphasized within lectures. Complete lecture suggestions that give entertaining, yet educational, ideas on how to enliven classroom discussion of the text material are provided as well. In addition, classroom activities serve to provide hands-on suggestions for applying course material to students' everyday lives in and out of the classroom. Questions for review and discussion are available for each chapter to aid instructors in promoting class participation and/or as essay question assignments.

The Instructor's Manual can be found on the Instructor's Resource CD-ROM and on the book Web site (http://www.mhhe.com/dacey6).

The Test Bank provides instructors with more than 1,500 test questions specifically related to the main text. This testing tool includes multiple-choice questions for each chapter from which to develop test materials. In addition, each test item is identified by type as factual, conceptual, or applied for easier test development. The Test Bank is available in Microsoft Word format and in computerized format on the Instructor's Resource CD-ROM.
