Hodder Education will be first on the market to publish AQA(A) Psychology for AS resources. Fully tailored to the new 2008 AQA(A) Psychology specification this resource is supported by Student CD-ROM and a Network Edition CD-ROM for teachers. Both the book and the supporting Dynamic Learning CD-ROMs are written by best-selling authors and trusted experts Richard Gross and Geoff Rolls.
Inspection Copies of OCR Psychology for AS, as well as Inspection Copies for AQA(A) and AQA(B) Psychology for AS resources can be requested now by e-mailing fe.marketing@hodder.co.uk quoting “slapes” in your email. Inspection copies are only available to teachers.
Hodder Education is currently the No. 1 publisher for A level Psychology. Being aware of the challenges difficulty teachers and students will be facing with the new 2008 specifications, it is our aim to provide teachers with leading expert advice and support. With this in mind and to maintain the complete support that teachers know and trust, we have chosen the leading expert authors to write our AQA(A) resources.
All of our A level psychology resources are complemented by Dynamic Learning CD-ROMs which will give you flexible support in the classroom and inspire your students.
What is Dynamic Learning? Dynamic Learning is the e-learning platform that helps you to bring your subject to life for students, powerfully and simply.
“Arguably, the transition to e-learning, and beyond that to personalisation, will only be made if the content can be transitioned alongside the process in such a way that both teacher and learner can retain a sense of the structure and shape of the learning process that equates to the security provided by traditional learning materials. If this argument is accepted then Hodder Dynamic Learning deserves a “best of breed” award”.

This is a paid for sponsorship from Hodder – as soon as we have a copy of the books we will be writing reviews of them. From the extracts they look like excellent resources for the new specification.
