Last week both AP and honors classes spent a good deal of time learning about the history of psychology through its origins in philosophy. At the bottom of this post you will find power points and other notes that both classes have used up to this point. One of the assignments that my honors students finished Friday was a psych family tree project, where they mapped out the development of psychology from ancient philosophers to modern perspectives on the subject. Both classes did a great job and I will post some photos of what students came up with tomorrow.
As for the week ahead, Honors has a vocab quiz this Wed, and a quiz on the history of psych Thursday. AP should be working on vocab for its quiz next week as well as reading the articles on animal testing and making their first post to the class wiki. Also this week, both classes will be learning about the scientific method and how to carry out psychological studies. Once the classes have had a chance to create their ideas, I will be sure to post some here along with their results.
AP: Research Methods
Honors: Scientific Method
