These 2 projects cover one whole term of work and allows students to work at their own pace whilst developing their skills.
Project one focuses on research methods (Psychology and the economy, peer review, reporting research and other baisc themes) and encourages student to research into a study of their choice and present the findings, exploring and critiquing the research methods before supporting them to conduct their own small scale research and present the findings.
Project two is enrichment and choice based, which allows students to work in groups to develop resources for the whole cohort, for themselves or for the next cohort.
Project 3 is a critical reading task.
