Schedule for final weeks

I am now able to provide a comprehensive description of how the course will proceed as we move to the end of the term. If you have questions after reading through the description below, feel free to contact your tutorial leader for additional assistance in sorting out either the course requirements or your particular situation.

Calendar for Assignments

THE DUE DATE FOR SUBMITTING THE GROUP INQUIRY PROJECTS HAS BEEN MOVED (for the last time) TO 7PM ON WEDNESDAY, APRIL 15.

The deadlines for posting responses on the Dialogue Forum have also been altered to take into account that all students have now returned to classes. Check the Dialogue Forum for specifics in your tutorial section.

Calendar of class meetings

Friday, April 3: Holiday, no classes (make-up date for these classes is April 13, see below)

Wednesday, April 8: We will have a class in CLH – I at the usual time. I will talk about the Dixon article and the fifth chapter of the Butt book. There will also be some small-group discussion of this material during the class. A bit of time will also be available for project groups to meet and plan.

Friday, April 10: All of the tutorials will meet at the usual times in the usual rooms. There will be an opportunity to ask questions about assigned readings and about group inquiry projects. See comments from your tutorial leader on the Dialogue Forum about any assignments or other expectations for the tutorial.

Monday April 13: Despite the fact that April 13 is a Monday throughout the rest of the world, here at York it will be a Friday. All of the tutorials will meet at the usual Friday times in the usual Friday rooms. There will be an opportunity to ask questions about assigned readings and about group inquiry projects. See comments from your tutorial leader on the Dialogue Forum about any assignments or other expectations for the tutorial.

The last day of classes for all Psychology courses is April 13, but we have been told that our regular rooms will remain available to us for the rest of this week in order to hold make-up classes and review sessions. Consequently for those who would like to participate, the following additional opportunities will be available.

Wednesday, April 15: I will lead a discussion in CLH – I from 8:30 to 10:30 on material assigned for the weeks when the strike was still in progress. I will help students work through the discussion questions provided for the Milgram podcast, the Zimbardo website, the first two chapters of the Butt textbook. I will focus on Milgram and Zimbardo in the first hour and on Butt’s chapters in the second hour.

Friday, April 17: Final exam review sessions will be held from 8:30 to 10:30 on this morning. More than one room will be used if attendance warrants. The sessions will be led by our Discussion Facilitators, and will be similar in nature to those held before previous exams.

Monday, April 20: The final exam will be held from 7:00pm to 10:00pm. The location has not yet been announced.
