Taking Sides: Clashing Views on Controversial Issues in Abnormal Psychology, 3 rd ed. Dubuque, Iowa: McGraw- Hill, 2005 Nier, Jason A. Taking Sides: Clashing Views in Social Psychology, 2 nd ed. Dubuque, Iowa: McGraw- Hill, 2007 Slife, Brent. Taking Sides: Clashing Views in Psychological Issues, 14 th ed. Dubuque, Iowa: McGraw- Hill, 2006 Purpose The purpose of this AP Psychology course is to introduce students to the study of the behavior and mental processes of the human mind. This class will prepare students sufficiently for the AP Psychology Examination in May. Assignments For each unit, students must complete to the instructor s satisfaction these regular assignments (additional information below): Vocabulary DEPs (Delate, Example, Picture) Reading Notes/Outlines (from the text and other sources) Demonstration and Case Study analyses Free Responses Questions Each unit will require the completion of vocabulary DEPs, reading outline/notes, and other projects: Vocabulary DEPs- from a list of terms and commonly used psychological vocabulary, the student is expected to not only define the term, but also create an example and choose a visual representation of the term.
2 FRQs (Free Response Questions)- each Topic will be accompanied by a free response question. As the Topic is learned, the student will be prepared to answer the question fully and critically. Reading Notes/Outline- Reading is a large part of this class. Students are required to read the text and other supplemental readings, and they must take notes on what they read. These notes are to go beyond basic annotations; they must reflect their thoughts and understanding of the topic that is being learned. Expectations There are several requirements that all Advanced Placement classes have in common; high expectations of the students, a high level of rigor, and the expectation that students will partake in self- learning outside the classroom. There are many topics that may be covered on the AP exam in May. I will cover a great deal of that material in class and provide rigorous learning activities. However, as in college, it is necessary for all students to partake in assigned activities at home that we may not cover in class. Assessments Unit tests are multiple choice and FRQ based. Practice exams cover all AP content and are graded according to what portion of the exam we have covered in class. Grading categories Summative (Unit tests, FRQ) 55% Formative (quiz, projects, HW) 45% Units of Study and Objectives Unit 1: History and Approaches of Psychology I highly encourage students and parents to take advantage of Skyward, the online site to access grades.
