Cover Work for Miss Duffin – Tuesday 8th April – Year 13

Sorry i am not in everyone, I am on a course.

We have the final debate of ‘Is Psychology a Science?’ to cover.  In preparation for that I would like you to write 2 x 300 word paragraphs to bring to your next lesson - one on why you think psychology IS a science and evaluated and the second on why you  think psychology IS NOT a science and evaluated.  I am not expecting you to research the theories, this is based on your opinion.  However, try to back up your points in each paragraph with psychological evidence and evaluate using the standard criticisms.

Email me if you have a problem with this – duffins@ashlawn.org.uk

See you later in the week, Miss Duffin

Social Influence Revision Powerpoint – Year 12

social-influence-revision.ppt As used in my revision sessions after school - this constitutes the absolute bare minimum you need to know and not all of the evaluative points are covered.  However it may be a good starting point for revision of this topic.

Feel free to write extra questions on this or any of my topics (Social Influence, Stress and Memory) and hand them in or email them to me. I am more than happy to mark them and give you feedback.

My email address is duffins@ashlawn.org.uk - remember to attach your document!

Happy Easter to you all,

Miss Duffin
