This is a PowerPoint to support a “taster” session with year 8 or 9 students, before they choose to study Psychology at GCSE level. This PowerPoint is suitable for the Edexcel 9-1 GCSE Psychology specification. The PowerPoint encourages students to define Psychology themselves, discusses a definition of Psychology, briefly overviews the course topics and structure and then supports students to engage with a brain hat creation activity. *Please note that the 3D brain hat worksheet is not included in this resource, as this is not my work - but it is readily available for free online from a quick search. * Please note that an extension activity directs students to use the Edexcel GCSE 9-1 Psychology textbook - this can easily be removed if you do not have the textbooks accessible for students.

This is an information leaflet for the Edexcel 9-1 GCSE Psychology specification and can be used as a hand-out for students/parents at GCSE options evenings or taster sessions with year 8/9 students.
