Intro Psych Wrap-up!

April 21, 2008

Intro Scholars,

Remember that to calculate your exam score take 75% of your individual test score and add to that 25% of your collaborative exam score.

I’ll be handing back your exams today. The descriptives for our third exam score are a mean of 66.6 and a standard deviation of 8.9. That means a C was anything between a 62 and a 71. B’s are anyting between 72 and 78, A’s anything above 81. D’s range from 56 to 61.

Remember to correct your exams as prep for the final. It is important that you do this on your own if you are interested in learning the material.

We’ll start at 3:35 sharp… bring a number 2 lead and your brain :-)

Intro Exam!

April 14, 2008

Our individual exam over learning, memory, and cognition is today. Collaborative exam on Wednesday.

The exam follows the honor code. It is closed book, closed note, closed neighbor. A proctor will be there for me and I am telling her to confiscate the exams of anyone with wandering eyes…. so look straight ahead and if you believe there are cheaters around you… cover your scantron.

Remember to study as you take the exam. Think about the questions and prepare for Wednesday. Almost everyone is in great shape to pass the class and many of you are in a position to get really high marks. I’m so so proud :-)

I totally need to leave town tomorrow for a conference and I’m making chili for the annual cookoff.

Can anyone help cure cancer by serving my chili up. Of course, there’s always a pirate theme and you’ll get to talk smack about the chili Dr. Lloyd an Dr. Smith serve up.

I’ll have everything ready for you… just look pretty and lick your fingers and go “yummy” put your vote in the skull.

Scholars,

We will wrap up Memory today and get started on Cognition. We will finish up with cognition.

Let’s all get on the same page with our text and our cognition material. I am only going to be lecturing on and testing on the cognition material. YOU ARE NOT responsible for the language material in the second half of the chapter.

That being said the language material is very important and I would encourage you to read about it. If you take a human development class in the department a great deal of time will be devoted to language (especially language development).

See you guys later, prof_chuck
