3 February 2012    PLEASE READ ALL!

We had a very ethical day today! We turned in the Why Psych paper today; if you were gone then turn it on on Tues and indicate on the paper that you were absent otherwise I will take off late points! If it is just simply late then please write LATE on the top of it! Today we discussed the ethics of studies and experiments in Psychology. We also had those who wished to present for extra credit do so, then we ended with a review game.
Announcements:
1. When you come in to class on Tuesday, please have all your homework stapled, turn it in on the projector, then take a test and dive in! This will maximize the time you have to take the test.

2. I will also hand out a pretest for Unit 2, so that will be your homework for Thursday!

3. If your group got first place in the Review Game today please put a +4 on the top of your test. If your group got second place please put a +3 on the top! If you lie about your group winning (I know who it should be) then I will deduct points off your test!

4. IF YOU ARE CAUGHT CHEATING DURING THE TEST, YOU WILL EARN YOURSELF A ZERO.

5. Your Social Norms assignment and your guided notes are due on Tuesday!

Have a great weekend!
