Coursework Expectations
Dear all,
here is some idea of what we are expecting between now and September,
a) discussions (F1-4) finished by the end of this week (11th July)
b) all sections to be complete in workbooks by the end of next week (18th July)
c) all sections (apart from the calculations) typed and in ONE plastic wallet and handed in during your first psychology lesson of next term (by 5th September you will all have had a lesson)
This is a managed workload and therefore non-negotiable expect under the most extreme circumstances. If you fail to meet these deadlines, particularly (c) then we will be speaking to parents – please don’t make us need to do this.
If you need help, speak to one of us in your lessons between now and then or come to the humanities office after school. We can’t tell you what to write but we will point you in the right direction if you are stuck.
We hope that you have an enjoyable summer and look forward to seeing you in September,
Miss Duffin

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
