Homework
Here is the handout about homework that I provided on the first day of class. In this post, I will provide information about which articles and videos are appropriate for these 6 one-page papers.
I have a few specific articles that I can link you to (I will create a new post to share those with you), but you can also find articles on your own by going to the American Psychological Association web site, to “psychology topics”. Click on a subject that interests you—for example, ADHD. Scroll down the page past the first couple sections to the one labeled “News”. Any of the news articles (on any of the psychology topics) is acceptable for your 10 point papers. Below the news links, there should be the heading “Monitor on Psychology Articles”. Those are also acceptable for 10 point papers.
Here are some approved videos.

Finding articles using PubMed
For both Introductory Psychology and Psychology of Growth and Development, there is a 30 point paper due at the end of the quarter. The specifics of the assignments are different, but both require at least one scholarly/empirical article as a reference. The instructions below are designed to explain how to find such an article for your paper.
This guide to finding articles using PubMed is available at the library. This link takes you to the library page on the AIAM web site (found under "Resources"). If you have a Columbus (or Worthington, or Westerville...) library card, you can access premium resources, like EBSCO. Whether you are using PubMed or one of the premium services, be sure to click the "full text articles" box when doing your search.
