Template for Environmental Psychology Topics 1-6. In line with the OCR A level specification (unit 3 - Applied Psychology).

Guidance for the Unit 1 (Research Methods) section B 15 mark questions. As part of the OCR A level Psychology specification. Powerpoint includes overview of the paper, example of a 15 mark question (from the 2022 paper), outline of structure for each paragraph, example paragraph with explanation why it is good and a spot the mistakes activity. I’ve attached the spot the mistakes activity as a worksheet (both pdf and word). Students will write mistake(s) under each paragraph and can also fix the paragraphs by deleting/adding stuff in. Space has been allowed for this on the sheet but can also be done ‘live’ on a teacher computer if preferred.

Task to introduce reconstructive memory prior to learning Loftus and Palmer’s study. In line with Unit 2 (Core Studies) of the OCR A Level Psychology specification. Students are given a story to read and asked questions one week later. Half the students get extra information from another point of view, to see if this changes their answers in the memory test to promote discussion on believing rumours and taking this into our memories. Powerpoint and worksheets included.

Christmas Task inspired by a cheeky elf who likes to visit! Students will be tasked with designing a scene for the elf to be discovered in. The scene must be based on a core study and have a purpose of getting the children to do something (such as tidying their room). The rationale behind the scene must be explained next to their design. I have given 6 suggestions (Milgram, Piliavin, Bandura, Kohlberg, Loftus & Palmer and Moray) but any study may work. I’ve also added an example of a design inspired by Chaney’s study. Great activity as an end of term treat for students in line with Unit 2 of the OCR A Level Psychology course. Helps with creativity needed in applying research for suggestions in unit 2 section C and unit 3 section B.
