ABSTRACT
Part of teaching psychology is not only to present theories and research but also to provide opportunities for students to critically evaluate their attitudes and expectations to see where faulty logic and biases may lie. Several authors have described courses (e.g., Bohan, 1997; DeFour & Paludi, 1991; Paludi, 1986; White, 1994; Whitten, 1993) and activities (e.g., Crawford, 1994; Hebl, 1995; McMinn & Foster, 1991; Simoni, 1996) that address stereotyping and biases, yet most descriptions addressed biases concerning gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, or ethnicity rather than age bias.
