On line Psychology Taster Session

(0)
Here is a set of slides I used to conduct a taster session (AQA - but can be adapted) I structured the session around memory (3 experiments). Students do not have to interact, but you will have to explain the theory. The experiments run through automatically - I do advise that you run the slides before presenting on line. (I have added a link at the end to youtube where I speak over the slides and you can run the slides as a recording - but be aware this is for applicant to my college - I will update this if requested)
