Ethics of Psychological Experiments - Video & Lesson Transcript | Study.com - 1 views

  •  
    This is a video link to study.com. The video explains ethics of psychological experiments. The only downfall is that it will only show you half of the video; therefore you would have to buy a subscription to see the whole video. Study.com also has other great psychology videos also.

    The topic of teaching ethics is a great one--I just recently held a debate in my class about the ethics of animal testing. The students were so engaged in the topic and finding research. It was quite a success! I would love to use some of the ideas presented here as well..

My best lesson: I get my psychology students to assess my mental health - 1 views

  •  
    Not a resource as such, more an idea - at an appropriate time, I think I'm going to give it a try. Might not produce great results (almost definitely won't), but can highlight the need to apply learning, help to empower students and increase all-important student / teacher trust. Maybe?

    After reading through this site, I believe that I am going to turn this into a lesson plan that I am going to use the first week of psychology each year. This would probably be useful for all my students, not just my psychology students.

Psychology Lessons | TED-Ed - 4 views

    This is a great site for finding awesome videos that are teaching tools for Psychology. It even breaks your search up into different fields of study such as "Cognition and Learning" and "Developmental Psychology". You can sort the videos by "Most Video Views," "Newest," "Shortest," etc. One video of interest shows a great cartoon that accompanies ideas about how musicians get great brain workouts! I think this site is full of great learning tools for teachers and students alike.

What is depression? - Helen M. Farrell - 0 views

  •  
    Depression is the leading cause of disability in the world; I believe it is important to share to students so they be aware and be well educated on this topic in psychology. Students would most likely experience this and it will be benefecial for them to be equipped with knowledge on this topic.

    This is an easy site, with a lot of short and well-explained info. Here you can find "something about everything", and can be a good place to start when you should introduce a new topic in class, or as a starting-point for students. This site is also on Facebook, so you can get updates almost every day.
  •  
    I use this website to get my students interested in what psychologists actually do and what they actually study in today's world; they're often surprised at the variability of studies and fields!
  •  
    I wouldn't necessarily recommend the whole website but some of the articles are good for jump starting a lesson.
  •  
    This website is useful not just for definitions and descriptions of essential psychological concepts, but also gives you updates on recent developments in the field of psychology.
  •  
    Good for a general read
  •  
    For a bit of everything... Again, articles are not always comprehensive, but they may serve as good conversations-starters! A very detailed search menu is helpful to find something relevant for your class discussion topic.

Before we can begin any research method it is vital that we stick to an ethical code of practice, as we will be dealing with people. Ethics refers to the correct rules of conduct necessary when carrying out research.

    This Webpage outlines Ethical guidelines in psychology according to the British Psychological Society and American Psychological Association. It also explains the process that researchers go through when they submit a proposal to conduct research. A valuable resource to share with students before they begin to conduct their experiments for IA.

BPS Research Digest - 1 views

    This site will help you keep up-to-date with the latest psychology research. You could find some experimental studies that can be replicated, but that's not so easy and you might have to do quite a lot of searching.

    A useful blog list for student interest and current topics in psychology.
  •  
    Hi Tulia, The BPS and APA are very useful. 3 other sights that my be of use: http://www.holah.co.uk/page/home/ Although is set up for AS level it ahs many relevant studies that might be replicated by students and several studies covered in the levels of analysis. Overall summary of the studies aims, procedures, findings are given, quizzes and key words. psychlotron.org.uk Really good sight for all topic areas- power points, lesson plans, and worksheets/handouts. Applicable to most syllabuses. http://www.resourcd.com/forum/show_forum/2 A really good site where teachers share resources for all syllabuses- power points, handouts, clips, quizzes etc Best regards, Yvette

    For some reason I think this didn't work the first time! This website is The British Psychological Society's blog. It is called "Research Digest: Blogging on brain and behaviour", and it reports on current research papers. As a sample of their attention-grabbing research posts, there are such titles as "The Psychology of Facebook, Digested" (Social Anxiety) and "10 Hellish Psychology Studies You'll Be Glad Not To Have Participated In" (Research Ethics). It seems like a great site to spark student interest into a variety of relevant research topics in a "digestible" way.

    One of the first websites I came across when looking for resources; Haven't stopped using it since. Perfect for practicing to write research summaries!
