Psych 105 Requirements

REQUIREMENTS OF PSYCH 105

Everyone will be expected to complete the following REQUIREMENTS:

Reading assignments--if everyone does all of the reading in advance, our discussions will occur at a significantly higher level, and so will be much more interesting. I recommend completing the weekly assigned reading prior to class on Tuesday. In all cases, if you look at the title of the chapter that's assigned for a specific week, you should be able to tell which class it corresponds to, and you should read that chapter prior to that class.
(10%)--Class attendance and participation (see first bullet above). This COULD make a big difference.
(5%)--Syllabus quiz.
(10%)--A one-page write-up on the Babies movie (to be shown in class). The primary purpose of this assignment is to ensure that you actually had--and thought about--the experience about which you are writing.
(10%)--Attend the guest lecture of Professor Robert Lickliter (Tuesday, November 9 at 4:00 pm) and submit a one-page write-up on the lecture. The primary purpose of this assignment is to ensure that you actually had--and thought about--the experience about which you are writing.
(10%)--A diary, containing a summary of the things you learn during your internship experience. This assignment will not be letter graded, but instead, you will receive either a check-plus, check, check-minus, or a zero, based on the level of insight and reflection provided in your entries. While I'm not uninterested in what you DO in your internship, you'll be graded on what you have LEARNED, which will require some reflection in your diary.
(15%)--It is imperative that you show up for the hours each week when your assigned internship supervisor will be expecting you. Therefore, I will be asking each supervisor to give me some feedback on your performance in his/her classroom; this feedback will be figured into your final grade in this class.
(20%)--One in-class midterm examination.*
(20%)--A final examination, SCHEDULED FOR WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 15 AT 7:00 PM.*

*The midterm and final exams will include material from both the textbook and class lectures. When studying for both exams, please remember that all material in the course is fair game, so it is to your advantage to study everything. That having been said, material that is covered both in the textbook AND discussed in class is more likely to appear on an exam than is material covered only in one or the other.

Please note: there is NO extra credit offered in this course. Points are earned by completing the requirements listed above. In addition, I will consider any collection of 4 or more consecutive, unquoted words taken from another source to be plagiarism. Any writing assignment containing any plagiarized content will receive an automatic grade of F.
