Content ContributorsCreating this book is a team effort. Like so many human achievements, it is the product of a collective intelligence. For this edition, we were fortunate to collaborate closely with two expert Content Contributors throughout the development process. The Content Contributors understand the needs of both the psychology teacher and the psychology student. They each contributed 10 modules and provided helpful direction on how to make the content relevant, engaging, and appropriate for a high school classroom. These Content Contributors provided sage guidance on key content, organizational and pedagogical issues, and ensured that the assessments adequately test student understanding on core materials. We extend gratitude and admiration to each of these talented educators for their enduring contributions to the teaching of psychology.Kristin Habashi Whitlockis the Director of Assessment for AP%u00ae Psychology at the College Board.
