Abstract
The article focuses on innovative teaching methods that support students in reimagining social psychology through a critical feminist lens. It details three key interventions by a higher education psychology teacher: implementing collaborative, feminist-informed classroom activities; co-authoring an undergraduate textbook titled *A Feminist Companion to Social Psychology* that integrates feminist perspectives into core social psychology curricula; and developing a final-year module based on this textbook to deepen students' critical engagement. These approaches aim to enhance psychological literacy by encouraging reflection on gender, intersectionality, and the historical androcentrism of psychology, while promoting inclusivity and equality. Student feedback and academic reviews highlight the positive impact of these feminist pedagogical practices on engagement and critical thinking.
