The instructor will facilitate, observe and evaluate students' participation in learning activities which directly support their Psychology 1100 coursework. Whole and small group instruction will be combined with individual assistance and student directed learning.
The language content will be derived from the Psychology course content and requirements, and sequenced
accordingly:
- Psychology 1100 textbook and other course materials, including assignments.
- Psychology 1100 lectures
- reading, writing, speaking and listening tasks and support material relevant to the objectives listed above.
Within the context of Psychology 1100, successful students will be able to participate effectively in class and
successfully complete all course requirements. Specifically, successful students can:
- complete required writing tasks, in particular, the experimental research report.
- understand and use textbook and other reading material to complete assignments, conduct experiments
and take tests.
- understand lecture material and take notes
- make class presentations
A mastery model of on-going evaluation will be used. A student will reach mastery when s/he has demonstrated through satisfactory completion of exercises, assignments and other assessments that the course objectives have been achieved.
Where formal tests of specific skills are used, mastery will be defined as a score of 70% or more.
Progress will be monitored on a regular basis by the instructor in consultation with each student.
Evaluation in EASL 0491 will not be tied to students' achievement in Psychology 1100.
