Comments on an article by Lisa M Kath et al (see record 2021-16490-003) This commentary expands upon the focal article's outline of fundamentals in applying industrial and organizational (I-O) psychology research to the practice of teaching by addressing the needs of undergraduate students in nontraditional circumstances Although positioned as applicable to large and small classes as well as students who may not pursue I-O psychology as a career, the scope of their recommendations did not address two important cases of undergraduate I-O teaching: course modality and nonpsychology student populations As remote instruction in the age of the novel coronavirus pandemic is more relevant than ever before, these cases require further attention We therefore offer insights and considerations into teaching I-O psychology to undergraduates by drawing from our own experience in building an undergraduate I-O minor within a college that serves nonpsychology students via primarily asynchronous courses As a result, this commentary is relevant for teaching I-O psychology to undergraduates who are distributed across countries and time zones, veterans (often with disabilities), and adults with full-time careers-characteristics of students likely to be enrolled in online courses and programs (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2021 APA, all rights reserved)
