Social psychology (psychology)/Lectures/Introduction/Instructor notes
There were several issues in 2007 which were meant to be considered for 2008, but weren't (due to unavailability of files due to computer rebuild):
Thus, most issues from 2007 remain to be done:
History
edit2007
edit- The slides were the first prepared in OOImpress, based on:
- 2005 Lecture 1
- The new Textbook - Baumeister, including the demo PPT text slides
- 2008 - Small/minimal improvements.
- added design template
- removed ~10-15 slides to make is shorter
- lightly edited/reviewed
- added/improved some text/images
To do
edit- Remove animation
- Check layout - some overlapping text
- Add attributions for all images
- Shorten (it was far too long): Culture & Nature should be shifted into the next week with Social Self
- Add more examples of “social psychology” situations (e.g., as per p. 4-5 in Baumeister & Bushman, 2008.
- Take account of (and incorporate 2005 Lecture 2 History and Research) (major oversight)
- Incorporate textbook digital images (if available)
- Listen to 2005 audio & 2007 & 2008 audio/video & review/write-up accordingly
- Add age of universe
- Add quote from book about being on planet earth
- Add quote from Buckminster Fuller about spaceship earth
- Animations needs to be fixed/stripped
- Sometimes multiple clicks are needed to go to the next slide
- Add page numbers
Notes
edit- Handout should not include planet slides
- However, slide-numbers also need to be added (reconcile with previous point - must be a way to hide these slides from appearing in the handout)
- An intention was to play something interesting before the start and/or during the break, e.g.,
- "Beijing Welcomes You" for the 2008 Olympics - however, a sound/audio cable out was needed.
Strengths
edit- If well presented, students can find this introduction 'engaging' in part due to the style (aka Dick Hardt's Identity 2.0 presentation)
