So my experiment with creating a daily blog sort of took a week off last week. My apologies. Here is a quick snapshot of what we did last week and what is coming up this week.
AP Psych
This week we talked about everything that is consciousness. We discussed sleep stages, sleep disorders, dreams, drugs, hypnosis, and meditation. Thursday we discussed the effects of drug addiction and how psychologists understand the cause of the condition. Friday we did a little experiment with hypnosis from the Harvard Hypnotic Scale. Students had a great time with it and gained a much better understanding of the conscious mind from it.
Upcoming Assignments: Test chp 1-4 Tuesday Oct 11th
Honors Psych
This week we finished the chapter on sensation and perception. Students watched several videos on methods of restoring sight and discussed what the pros and cons of such surgeries would be. Students now know all about the 7 senses-no the 6th isn't seeing dead people. Students also have an understanding of how we percieve the world around us and how 3D devices work. We will finish the chapter Monday with some learning stations on the senses and perception.
Upcoming Assignments: Test chp 1-3 Tuesday Oct 11th. Students have a study guide and can bring in a half sheet of paper with whatever notes that they want on it. Must be hand written, nothing stapled/glued/etc onto the paper.
