Biography
Hudson Valley Community College - Psychology
Psychology Instructor (2/4 year colleges & high school), Educational Psychologist, Professional Development Enthusiast
Higher Education
Dianne
Zielinski, EdD
Troy, New York
I have taught pre-K through Master's level courses and have found that play in its many forms help students learn. Play also includes current technology, and my next goal is to include game-play on common platform as part of a class.
A recent adventure has led to the creation of my YouTube channel, Dr Z Psych Stuff. I have recorded brief videos reviewing theories and concepts covered in class and make them available in my channel - with closed captioning - for students to review before tests and assignments.
Now with a music professor colleague I am exploring the use of humor and music to teach material in the classroom.
