Lesson Point which covers the second part of 2.6 from the AQA specification 8182 what factors affect our perception? Recap activity on Bruner and Minturn’s perceptual set study (1955). Students to write down all inforamtion they can recall on the study with a 2 minute time allowance. Students pass work to the right and add any missing or additional information they can to the sheet with a 1 minute time allowance. The sheet is passed on twice and time reduced by half both times. Students asked to draw a pig and then discuss their results. Slides then provide information for culture and perceptual set and drawing task cab be linked into learning. Students then apply learning to exam question (3 marks) based on culture and perceptual set. State the emotions activity to introduce emotions and motivation and perceptual set. Slides then show information for emotion and motivation on perceptual set. Descriptive information then shown to students for the key study and students to transfer information in their own words to a key study sheet (provided). Mini task linked to research methods in between for a three minutes. Information is that shared for evaluation points for the study. Students continue to transfer the information to the key study sheet in their own words. Design your own study on motivation activity. When designed study they are required to state the aim, hypotheses and method (to link in research methods) Homework/extension choices are a possible exam question on Gilchrist and Nesberg’s perceptual set study for 9 marks or to create a revision mat on perception with required content stated. Progress grid includes the following learning outcomes: Identify, Describe, Explain, Evaluate and Apply knowledge to answer exam questions accurately.

Lesson Point which covers the latter part of 2.5 from the AQA specification 8182 what is constructive perception? Recap activity on description/explanantion of Gregory’s Direct theory of perception and paired activity for students to demonstrate negative after affect. Students a timer (60 seconds timing), a sheet of A4 plain paper and a green piece of paper cut into a circle . (other bright coloured paper will work equally as well). After paired activity the link to Gregory’s theory and visual illusions is explained. Explanation for culture and perception as a strength of Gregory’s constructive theory of perception. Then explanations of limitations. First, visual illusions not a usual example on everyday life, explanantion on Muller-Lyer illusion questioned and Gregory’s theory not explaining how perception started. PowerPoint then focuses on the exam question Describe and evaluate Gregory’s constructive theory of perception (9 marks). The slide shows annotation of the exam question breaking the marks down to A01 and A03 and descriptions for each of the two LO are included. Mark scheme for A01 and A03 features are included. Top tips shared with students on how to achieve higher marks. Example answers are included. I print one copy out for students to annotate and discuss with an agreed mark in pairs using the mark scheme provided, then I provide an the annotated version and discuss the answers with them suggesting areas for improvement. Students are to plan what content they will put in the 9 mark answer and separate it into the A01/A03 features. Students then have 9 minutes in assessment conditions to answer the question using the plan they made previously. I then get students to peer assess each others work using the mark scheme provided. Compare and contrast activity of Gibson’s direct theory and Gregory’s constructive theory activity at the end of powerpoint is useful for students to understand the differences between them. Homework activity included: Explain what a top-down and bottom up theory is. Link these to Gibson’s direct theory of perception and Gregory’s constructive theory of perception.

Students then complete a table. from the PowerPoint with the visual illusion in, they are to match the visual illusions to the exlanations they learnt above.Challenge is for student to explain why each one matches with its explanation. Explanations then provided for each of the visual illusion images. Students use this information to explain in the space left earlier around their own images. 3 marks worth of apply it exam style questions. Information on visual constancies provided and the Amnes room linked. Video included to support explanation. Students should make notes on constancies and how the Amnes room works.

I recommend Teacher then can question students on examples and get them to explain why it shows particular depth cues. Information on affordances and examples provided to students. Students then to create their own example of an object and its possible affordances. Information provided for a strength of Gibson’s direct theory of perception being that it was based on pilots and has ecological validity.
