This project was the final stage in a series of activities in which students used to APA code of ethics to evaluate psychological research. Here, students looked at the Facebook Emotional Contagion experiment and created a newscast in which they evaluated the ethics of this controversial experiment.
The Human Brain
Here, students choose between several options to explore the structure and function of the brain.
Piaget
In this activity students teach their peers about Piaget's stages of development
Development
In this activity, students apply concepts of Erikson's theory of psychosocial development by developing scenarios that demonstrate the hallmarks of each stage.
Drugs and Addiction
In this activity, students apply concepts about drugs and addiction to provided scenarios.
Human Auditory System Analogy
In this lesson, students designed an analogy to learn the structure and functions of the parts of the human auditory system.
Sensory Thresholds
In this activity students designed experiments to investigate sensory thresholds for varying stimuli. If done again, I might let them choose from a list of experiments, as the design phase of this activity was challenging to manage.
