prof_chuck’s psychology blog

Scholars,

I (potentually) get the honor of being in a video that the university is putting together for recruitment. I guess my hair allows me to represent diversity (I’m sure it’s not the white skin or maleness). I would like to recreate an exercise I do in all my intro psych class… it involves measuring the speed of neural conduction and is a hands on activity.

If you would like to be in the video (and potentually interviewed) be in the psych hallway Monday at 12:15.

In addition to making you famous, you will also learn (or relearn in some instances) a little about neural impulses.

XOXOX, prof_hollywood

Got this note from english and thought I’d share… I wanna go…

Boundless Expressions, the NGCSU creative writing club, is planning to host a “Harry Potter Halloween Party” on Monday, October 30, at 12:00 in the English Department, on the third floor of Dunlap Hall.  We are hoping to have several guest speakers, themed treats, and movie clips.  Dr. Brehe has kindly agreed to make a presentation.

We will also raffle off a set of the Bloomsbury/UK press version of the Harry Potter novels.

All proceeds from the party and the auction will go to the Literacy Coalition.

If you have any questions, e-mail Lacey Shore at laceyshore@yahoo.com

Scholars,

I have arranged for you to complete AlcoholEdu tomorrow during our scheduled SFCS class. I just spoke with Ms. Carol in IIT and have reserved the HNS 152 lab. (HNS stands for Health and Natural Science Building). This is a nice lab and you should be able to get finished so use this time. The lab is reserved for us from 11 until 12:30.

So there is a lot of discussion about a new presentation tool called slideshare. Check it out and the commentary on CogDogBlog and TechCrunch.

ALSO…. don’t forget about our old friend thumbstacks…. and you can try Empressr too.

Hello Scholars.

It’s shaping up to be a very busy week.

On Monday we have a psych club meeting. Dr. Lloyd will present on applying for graduate school. Check it out! I’ll be at a meeting on civic engagement.

On Wednesday CLC will meet to plan out the recycling mission in complete detail. I’ll be at the faculty meeting in support of the new Quality Enhancement Plan ( INFORMATION LITERACY!!!!!!!!). Let me know what you need from me. I’m working on the recycling bins as we speak.

In addition, on Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 there will be a speaker up in the HNS auditorium speaking on, “Mitochondrial DNA in diabetes, function and malfunction”. I want to check that out. Sounds good.

Intro Psych will be covering Sensation and Perception. The Collaborative Knowledge Development learning community will be covering that too and will be giving their PPT presentation of their survey results on Wednesday. Does anyone need help?

Stats will continue to work on SPSS projects. We’ll catch up to our textbook work on SPSS, then start on independent sample t-tests.

Cognition will dive into a variety of topics related to long-term memory as we finish chapter 5 and start on chapter 6. By the end of the end of the week you guys want be able to believe anything anymore, least of all, your memory. It’s gonna be great fun!

So I’m heading out to Savannah for an information literacy conference.

I hope to return with lots of new torture techniques
If you’ve been in class, then you know what you are supposed to do.

Have a good weekend.
