1 AP Psychology Summer Assignment School Year Dear AP Psychology students, Welcome to AP Psych! Attached is your work for the summer which needs to be completed by the first day of classes. Please feel free to me with any questions. Best, Mrs. Kerley What to do first Sign the Student/Parent Agreement (attached) You will be responsible for returning this form signed on the first day of class. If you or your parents have any questions, please feel free to me at Purchase your class materials There are three required materials you must purchase for AP Psychology before you begin your summer assignment. Each are available for purchase through Holy Child/MBS. 1. Psychology, Ap Edition. Ciccarelli, White. 4 th Edition. ISBN: MyPsychLab with Pearson etext (1-year access). ISBN: Note: Purchasing the etext in addition to the physical textbook is optional. 3. Test Prep Series Booklet for AP Psychology. Ciccarelli, White. 4 th Edition. ISBN: There are three summer assignments the first and second require you to read Chapter 1 in your textbook and complete the reading checks & workbook pages, and the third provides you with the opportunity to read and analyze articles and apply your knowledge of the psychological perspectives from the first chapter. All assignments are due on the first day of class. (Note: When you complete assignments #2 & #3, make sure you have completed assignment #1 FIRST.)
2 Assignment #1: Read Chapter 1 and complete the reading checks Read Chapter 1 in your textbook. As you read, be aware of how the text helps you. The section is diagramed out at the end, and the objectives are listed and described at the beginning of each chapter. Additionally, complete the attached reading check worksheets on each group of sections as you read. These reading checks will be assigned throughout the year for each chapter. Use them as a guide - it is recommended that you chunk your reading of Chapter 1 since there are 19 sections (for example sections 1-5, 6-12, 13-19). Assignment #2: Read Chapter 1 in your test prep booklet Read pages 1-5 in your test prep booklet. The Rapid Review is a great way to quickly learn the specifics of the chapter, or to review for an upcoming test (or exam!). Complete study hints #1 & #2 after reading and taking notes on the chapter to check for understanding. If you browse through the rest of the chapter 1 materials, you will find that each chapter consists of a rapid review, study hints, learning objectives, a chapter glossary, and a practice test. We will be using the test prep booklet as a companion text as we progress through each chapter in your regular textbook. Assignment #3: Article Analysis Read three of the five articles below on the theme of teenagers and behavior. After reading each article, you will analyze the article and complete four guided review questions. The questions must be answered in complete sentences for each of the three articles. The answers for each article must be submitted on a separate piece of paper with the name of the journal, title of the article, author, and the publication date at the top of the page. 1. The Teenage Brain: Spock vs. Captain Kirk (NPR Ed, Mar. 11, 2015) 2. Partying on Facebook May Spur Teens Risky Behavior (Psych Central, Sept. 4, 2013) 3. Why the Teen Brain is Drawn to Risk (Time, Oct. 8, 2012) 4. Teens and risky behavior: More complicated than it seems? (Los Angeles Times, Oct. 2, 2012) 5. Teenager, Friends, and Bad Decisions (New York Times, Feb. 3, 2011)
3 For each article you read, answer the following questions. Each of your responses should be thoughtful and thorough to receive full credit. 1. What does the author attribute to risky/bad teenage behavior? Please explain your answer in detail. 2. Does the author use research to support their claims about where the risky behavior comes from? If so, describe the research. If not, do you believe that the information in this article is reliable or valid? Why or why not? 3. Which of the eight psychological perspectives does this author use to present their case? This may be implied, so be ready to make inferences if necessary. 4. Do you agree with the author s opinion about where risky teenage behavior comes from? Why or why not? Note: You can find information about each of these perspectives in Chapter 1, Section 4 of the textbook and additional information from researching the psychology perspectives or approaches. Optional assignment: Sign up for the online textbook If you choose to order online access to your textbook (MyPsychLab), you will receive a code. Send me an (skerley@holychild.org) after you receive this code so I can set you up in the online class. You must have access to the online text even if you do not anticipate using it in place of your physical textbook during the school year. It is a valuable source of supplemental resources, such as movies, interactive diagrams, and notecards. You should complete this assignment BEFORE the first day of class.
