Psychology Coin Size Estimation Memory Encoding AP Psychology
2/8/24 Updated to include metric versions....I did not update the sample file.This lab was inspired by responses from my Personality Online Eysenck lab. In the PO Eysenck lab, I ask the students to take out a penny and trace it onto the “Eysenck circle” to predict where their personalities will be. Needless to say, not everyone has a penny in their pocket so I got a bunch of “freehand” circles…. I thought, hmmm,…this is interesting,….they did not really look like great estimates of the true size

Psychology My 20 favorite/hated words Language
These are not hard-core AP activities. They are just activities to help the students think a bit more about language. Hopefully the students will get a kick out of the assignment and maybe they will not take language for granted quite so much. I might use these with my Psych 1 classes as something that is just a bit fun. You might duplicate these front to back and let the kids choose whether they focus on favorite or hated words. I suppose they could be used with Language or English classes equa
