SOCIAL PSY

<p>This editable 23 page workbook is perfect for independent study or guiding students throughout the lesson, for experienced and new teachers alike.</p> <p>On Page 2 is the specification, with three faces so they can RAG rate their understanding throughout the topic. It also has a column they can tick to indicate that they have revised each area. On Pages 3-4 is a glossary which could be used as revision or in lesson as a key terms test.</p> <p>On each page there is space for students to complete information or activities to demonstrate their understanding and completion of the topic.</p> <p>When printing, I would recommend converting the PowerPoint to PDF as this may cause some formatting issues with some printers.</p>

<p>This lesson introduces learners to the famous Asch experiment and we start by carrying out the experiment in class as a starter (instructions at the start). After carrying out the study, students can watch the study in action while getting the key information down on aims, method, results and conclusions. We then look at Asch’s extended study which was done 4 years later by Asch on variations that can affect conformity such as group size, unanimity and task difficulty. Some questions to consolidate learning through MCQs and true or false before we look at evaluating Asch’s study. A 4 mark exam style question for students to attempt, model answer provided to compare answers before finishing with a debate and box plenary.</p> <p>Colourful, concise and engaging slides!</p> <p>Thank you</p>

<p>Included is a powerpoint covering Social Learning Theory in line with the AQA syllabus</p> <ul> <li>lesson powerpoint (could be split over 2 lessons) and a worksheet (could be used for homework)</li> <li>topics covered: intro to SLT, imitation, modelling, vicarious reinforcement,identification, mediational processes and case studies / experiements, AO3</li> <li>gap fills, true or false, discussion opportunities, summary questions, links to videos, match up, plenty of AFL</li> </ul>

<p>This fully editable lesson is designed for the AQA A-Level Specification (June 2019), focusing on Adorno’s F-Scale as a dispositional explanation for obedience. The lesson delves into how personality traits, particularly the authoritarian personality, can influence obedience, using Adorno’s research as a key framework. With interactive activities, quizzes, and exam practice questions, students will gain a thorough understanding of dispositional factors in obedience.</p> <p>Key Features:</p> <ul> <li> <p>Comprehensive Lesson Slides: Offers a detailed exploration of Adorno’s F-Scale, its development, and how it relates to authoritarian personality traits. Students learn how these traits, formed through harsh parenting, contribute to obedience and prejudice against minority groups.</p> </li> <li> <p>Interactive Quiz: A multiple-choice quiz designed to assess students’ understanding of Adorno’s F-Scale in a fun and engaging way. Students use A, B, C, or D cards or mini whiteboards to answer questions related to key concepts such as the definition of authoritarian personality and the role of harsh parenting in its development.</p> </li> <li> <p>Assessment Materials: Includes structured evaluation tasks and practice exam questions on the authoritarian personality. Students are encouraged to critically assess the validity and limitations of dispositional explanations for obedience, comparing them with situational factors. Model answers are provided to guide students in their exam preparation.</p> </li> <li> <p>Critical Evaluation: The lesson covers strengths and weaknesses of Adorno’s theory, discussing its deterministic nature, political bias, and methodological issues, such as the limitations of correlational research and the validity of the F-scale. Students engage in deeper evaluations, considering alternative explanations like social identity theory.</p> </li> </ul> <p>This resource is perfect for both classroom teaching and independent study, offering students a solid foundation in understanding the dispositional factors contributing to obedience and how personality traits can influence behaviour.</p>

<p>This fully editable lesson is designed for the AQA A-Level Specification (June 2019), focusing on Milgram’s Variation Experiments and the impact of situational variables on obedience. This lesson provides students with an in-depth understanding of how factors like proximity, location, and uniform affect obedience levels, drawing on real-world applications and critical evaluations of the research.</p> <p>Key Features:</p> <ul> <li> <p>Comprehensive Lesson Slides: Explores Milgram’s situational variables, including proximity, location, and uniform, and their effects on obedience. Each variation is explained with key findings and contextual applications.</p> </li> <li> <p>Interactive Activities: Features engaging tasks like the “Higher or Lower” activity, where students predict how obedience rates change under different conditions. A summary worksheet also reinforces the learning, prompting students to complete data tables and graphically display the findings from Milgram’s variations.</p> </li> <li> <p>Assessment Materials: Includes exam-style questions, such as evaluating the situational variables and understanding their impact on obedience, along with model answers and evaluation worksheets to support student exam preparation.</p> </li> <li> <p>Critical Evaluation: Students are guided to evaluate Milgram’s methodology, considering both strengths (like control and replicability) and limitations (such as ethical concerns and demand characteristics). The lesson also discusses the socially sensitive implications of situational explanations for obedience.</p> </li> </ul> <p>This resource is ideal for classroom teaching and independent study, helping students deepen their understanding of obedience and the situational factors that influence human behaviour.</p>

<p>This is a fun consolidation activity for students - I always use this as revision, sometimes as a starter.<br /> Designed with the AQA specification in mind, typically used with Cardwell and Flanagan’s ‘Year One and AS’ cat book.<br /> Trialled with several classes before publication.</p>

Perhaps surprisingly, psychology has been a discipline eager to capitalize on the application of computers for teaching. Traditionally, this has been for statistical calculations, and the presentation of experimental stimuli and the automatic collection of timed events (e.g., reaction times, choice-decision times). Here, the traditional capabilities of computers are being exploited - namely, their accurate temporal sequencing, graphical performance, and, above all, their number crunching.
