Section outline

  • Hey, no more work for the rest of the year! April Fools! Seriously, we still have quite a bit to get done before T Day on May 1. In fact , from here on out (well, for the next three weeks anyway), we'll be doing two modules per week.

    A quick schedule is as follows:

       Monday, 4/3 - Module 16 (Emotions); 6 pages minimum

       Thursday, 4/10 - Module 21 (Health, Stress & Coping); 11 pages minimum

       Monday, 4/10 - Module 17 (Infancy & Childhood); 12 pages minimum

       Thursday, 4/13 - Module 18 (Adolescence & Adulthood); 9 pages minimum

       Monday, 4/17 - Module 22 (Disorders I: Definitions, Anxiety Disorders); 8 pages minimum

       Thursday, 4/20 - Module 23 (Disorders II: Mood Disorder and Schizophrenia); 9 pages minimum

       Monday, 4/24 - Module 24 (Therapies); 10 pages minimum

    This week, as we conclude our examination of Motivation and Emotion, we'll be doing a few activities in class.

    -- On Monday, we'll analyze two cases from the "40 Studies..." book. The first is "A sexual Motivation," found on p. 158, and the second is "I Can See It All Over Your Face," found on p. 168.

    -- On Wednesday, we'll have the first of several vocabulary reviews. Each review will include 20 terms and 5 psychologists. Each also will include 10 review terms and 10 new terms. The People and Terms list for this unit (its Motivation/Emotion and Development), can be found below.

    -- There will be two Crash Course episodes (#25 "Feeling All The Feels," and #26 "Emotion, Stress and Health") viewed this week. The study guide for each is located below and may be printed out and completed for extra credit. If you so choose, #25 must be turned in by Thursday, with #26 due in by next Monday.


    Finally, the online test reviews for the Motivation and Emotion portion of the unit will be due in by Sunday, 4/9. The tests you need to do are 1) Motivation and Emotion, and 2) Gender & Sexuality. As usual, a percentage of 85 or must must be shown to receive credit.
