AQA GCSE psychology research methods revision mind maps

(0)
Mind maps for the research methods topic for GCSE psychology. This resource is accessible for students as they are simple mind maps but they cover everything on the AQA specification for the research methods topic. Experimental method Sampling methods Non-experimentall methods Case studies Observation studies Correlation Ethics Data Handling I use the maps at the end of the topic and get students to expand and elaborate adding their own information. They are also useful to introduce a topic, but also to help the students organise their notes and revision. This is useful to all students but particularly those who struggle with organising their notes and information. Suggestion: print on A3 paper to allow students enough room to elaborate.

Lesson Point which covers the latter part of 2.5 from the AQA specification 8182 what is constructive perception? Recap activity on description/explanantion of Gregory’s Direct theory of perception and paired activity for students to demonstrate negative after affect. Students a timer (60 seconds timing), a sheet of A4 plain paper and a green piece of paper cut into a circle . (other bright coloured paper will work equally as well). After paired activity the link to Gregory’s theory and visual illusions is explained. Explanation for culture and perception as a strength of Gregory’s constructive theory of perception. Then explanations of limitations. First, visual illusions not a usual example on everyday life, explanantion on Muller-Lyer illusion questioned and Gregory’s theory not explaining how perception started. PowerPoint then focuses on the exam question Describe and evaluate Gregory’s constructive theory of perception (9 marks). The slide shows annotation of the exam question breaking the marks down to A01 and A03 and descriptions for each of the two LO are included. Mark scheme for A01 and A03 features are included. Top tips shared with students on how to achieve higher marks. Example answers are included. I print one copy out for students to annotate and discuss with an agreed mark in pairs using the mark scheme provided, then I provide an the annotated version and discuss the answers with them suggesting areas for improvement. Students are to plan what content they will put in the 9 mark answer and separate it into the A01/A03 features. Students then have 9 minutes in assessment conditions to answer the question using the plan they made previously. I then get students to peer assess each others work using the mark scheme provided. Compare and contrast activity of Gibson’s direct theory and Gregory’s constructive theory activity at the end of powerpoint is useful for students to understand the differences between them. Homework activity included: Explain what a top-down and bottom up theory is. Link these to Gibson’s direct theory of perception and Gregory’s constructive theory of perception. Progress grid includes the following learning outcomes: Evaluate and Apply knowledge to answer exam questions accurately. Follows AQA GCSE psychology 8182 LO: 2.5 What is constructive perception?

Introductory power point lesson focuses on essential content A1. Factors affecting health & wellbeing: Definition of health & wellbeing: a combination of physical health and social and emotional wellbeing, and not just the absence of disease or illness. Students to identify the health issues on each of the images: Chicken pox, flu, broken bone, hay fever, eczema, stress. Explain that stress is also a health issue and not just a headache which may be a common misconception Component three learning objectives shared on slide & summary of essential content A, B and C shared. Planning for progress grid included in slides which include learning objectives. I would recommend you tube link to introduction video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGxPL37j234 as an introductory video to what is health & wellbeing and is embedded on the power point. Students spilt their page into four. They have two minutes to write/ draw/annotate information that they know about health and wellbeing. I.e.; what types of health? What illnesses? What is wellbeing? Instructions on slide. Negative and positive view of health is shown on the slide and a discussion of holistic and why it is important to consider this when looking at health should be conducted. Students should explain in their exercise books what holistic means and why it is important to health. Four images shown on the power point. Students to discuss the four examples and justify whether they should be considered as healthy or not based on the information provided. Students should be prepared to feed back. Different aspects of health are shown and students are to discuss what aspects they believe come under each type of health involves. Students to copy down the holistic diagram with a short explanation. This is repeated for wellbeing. The different types of health are explained and it should also be linked into mental health and how it is our ability to cope with everyday life’s and the stress and worries that they bring. If we cope well we can maintain a good mental health and therefore able to think clearly. Test your knowledge questions based on learning worth 5 marks. Task: You want to discover if a person aged either 18, 30 or 45 has a good health and wellbeing. Write 6 questions for one person from one of the ages to answer so it can be anaylsed to see if they are healthy or not. There must be at least one question based on physical, social, emotional and intellectual health. Students may then peer assess one another’s work.
