TL;DR: Myers in Modules as discussed by the authors is a modular version of the Psychology introductory text, which breaks down the 18 chapters of Psychology, Sixth Edition into 55 short modules, or modules.
Abstract: Myers in Modules is available (saleable) in two different versions: - A sturdier spiralbound with a cloth front and back cover. - A hardcover, traditionally-bound text. From his experience as both an author and teacher, David Myers has concluded that students digest material more easily when it is presented in smaller chunks. As students whether they would prefer a 700-page book to be organized as 14 50-page chapters or as 50 14-page chapters and their answers will approach a consensus: They prefer shorter chapters. Acting upon this belief, Myers has created a modular version of his bestselling introductory text, Psychology. Myers in Modules breaks down the 18 chapters of Psychology, Sixth Edition into 55 short chapters, or modules. Featuring the latest research and teaching innovations, Myers's new text reflects the author's continuing drive to discover the most effective way to communicate psychology's major ideas to an uninitiated audience.
