Today we went over Freud's perspective on Personality.  We started class by finishing our Myers-Briggs and I handed out an analysis of each personality which we then discussed in groups. We then discussed the Id, Ego, and Super Ego, did a review of the Defense Mechanisms, and discussed Erickson's Psycho-social stages of development.
We handed out a worksheet for the defense mechanisms, which is due on Friday, and also the Paper Bag project. We will discuss the Paper Bag more in-depth in class on Friday.

The reading for Friday is 327-332

26 March 2012
Quite the emotional day in class today, a roller coaster if I do say so! We reviewed parenting techniques at the beginning and then discussed emotion and the various Theories of Emotion.  The most important theories to know are the James-Lange, Cannon-Bard, and Schachter 2-Factor.  The other ones are important but you don't have to know them as in-depth as those main three.
Announcements:
1. I passed out a Personality Test that is due on Wednesday! We will be discussing personality and it will be helpful to have it all filled out.
2. Reading for tonight is 324-327
3. If you missed today please come in on Wednesday and take the quiz.

Today the class went over Achievement motivation and parenting styles. Mr. Stevenson taught so I am sure it was a great day! DO NOT FORGET that your Belief Windows assignment is due on Monday! You must teach 3 people outside of class what the belief window is. Write down their names, and what some of their beliefs on their "window" are.  Let me know if you have any questions, and don't forget to read pp. 311-316!
Have a great weekend!
