=​Welcome CASD's Psychology Wiki!! = As a class we will collaborate and create our own Psychology wiki page that will provide a home for the information we discover over the course of the class. We will be able to TEACH each other by sharing posts, editing and adding new information, discussing topics, and working together to share and expand our understanding of PSYCHOLOGY!

=First WIKI ASSIGNMENT...= SCHOOLS OF PSYCHOLOGICAL THOUGHT RESEARCH/PRESENTATION

In your groups, **RESEARCH** your school of psychological thought along with its major psychologists and their contributions. As you research, summarize your findings onto the wiki page linked above. Include information, pictures/visuals, links, and/or movie clips/animations to help your classmates understand your school of thought.

Remember to be __CONCISE, USE YOUR OWN WORDS__, and to __KEEP YOUR PAGE ORGANIZED AND READABLE__! Use your as you build your page.

Research Requirements

 * Reference at least __**THREE**__ **SOURCES** (one text, two internet). Works cited should be located at the bottom of your page (MLA and Hyperlinks are acceptable). Check out what the library has to offer by searching DESTINY for book sources.
 * Provide an **INTRODUCTION** to your topic that contains the basics: WHO, WHAT WHERE, WHEN WHY, HOW
 * Describe the major **THEORIES** or rationales of your topic. Provide any important experiments* that support this rationale.
 * Include a **__//brief//__ HISTORY** of the changes your topic has undergone since its origin.
 * Include **VOCABULARY** or terminology that is needed in understanding your topic. Be sure to use your own words!*
 * Attach **VISUALS** that compliment the information presented on your page. Minimum requirement is one visual per person, theory, experiment, concept presented on page.
 * Locate **CURRENT NEWS** (articles, studies, experiments, commentary) on your topic for further study.*

Once you have built your page, you will present your topic's information using your wiki as one of your __two__ visuals for your PRESENTATION. The presentation will be a summation of the research found and posted to your wiki.

Presentation Requirements For Students

 * Provide an **OVERVIEW** of your psychological school of thought and its **APPROACH** to psychological issues and topics.
 * **HIGHLIGHT** your school's **MAJOR CONTRIBUTORS** and their **IMPACTS**.
 * Include the most influential **EXPERIMENTS** that are the basis for your school of thought.

 * Presentation should provide (a) **THOUGH PROVOKING QUESTION**(S) that is posted and discussed on the wiki **DISCUSSION BOARD**.

As part of your presentation, you will post a topic for discussion that your group and classmates will participate in the night after your presentation. The discussion board is used with the same requirements and expectations as our classroom blog. Post your reaction to the question and comment on three of your classmates responses'. Each group's ability to encourage and foster electronic class discussion will be a weighing factor in the presentation grade.
