During the semester, I will be recording my lectures,
converting them into .mp3 format and posting them on Oakland University RSS feed. These lectures are also available for download on iTunesUniversity (Look in the Oakland University section under Psychology).
The .mp3s will contain my lecture. However, they will not
contain recordings of in-class demonstrations, in-class discussions, or films. Even though the
powerpoint handouts for the lecture will also be posted, the mp3s should
not substitute for attending class.
I know how difficult it is to keep track of your
syllabus
throughout the semester so I have provided you with a virtual syllabus.
Now when you misplace the syllabus you can just follow this link and
either
print a new copy for yourself or save a few trees and just refer to
your
virtual syllabus every time you want to know what's going on in class
that
day/week/month.
These are the PowerPoint outlines of the lectures given in class. Some
students
find it useful to print out the outlines and bring them to class to act as
an organizer for note taking. Other students find it useful to use the
outlines as a study guide for an upcoming test. Some students just like
to know what topics will be covered in class that day. However you
decide
to use these outlines, be advised that they are NOT to be used as a
substitute
for class attendance. They are only outlines and, as such, will be
missing
important information such as demonstrations, specific examples, and
(most
importantly) DETAILS.
I frequently get asked about the nature of the
questions
on the tests or the material my students are expected to know. These
practice
tests will give you some idea of the types of questions I will be
asking.
Not only will they help you prepare for the test, they might also give
you an idea as to the material you still need to study.
On this page you will find guidelines, the current
paper topic and the deadline for turning in each of the weekly writing
assignments.
You will need to log into Moodle to access your readings for this
class, turn in homework assignments and to find out your scores on the exams and your final score for
the class.
Links to websites that focus on psychological
issues.
Given my interests, many of these links provide information on topics
of
interest to Cognitive psychologists.
