We've probably all heard about the #WEIRD (Western, educated, industrialised, rich, democratic) problem in #psychology? We need to build a more inclusive, representative #psychology for humanity! Do we need to think our language? This article says yes, we do: www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/one-...

Rethinking 'WEIRD': It's Time for a Change
If we want to reduce Western bias in psychology, we should stop labeling people as WEIRD or non-WEIRD.

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
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.

#Ubuntu is an African value system that upholds #humanity, interconnectedness and collective #wellbeing. Its philosophy can help lecturers to humanise the classroom, particularly when tech risks depersonalising #learning, explains Chipo Simbi of the University of Southampton: ow.ly/kw7950VGVA6
