Required Submissions A series of 8-12 slides (also referred to as a presentation or slidedeck) A corresponding written script with 1-2 paragraphs of written narration describing each slide Step 1 Review assignment requirements. In this assignment, you will identify and explore three separate areas within the study of psychology that include biological functions, scientific method and modern psychological perspectives. Section 1: Select what you consider to be the three most interesting examples of how biological functions (for example, the nervous system) are related to our understanding of psychology. Provide examples that demonstrate how anatomical structures and functions relate to different areas of study within the field of psychology, such as social, organizational, cognitive, counseling, or developmental. (2-3 slides) Section 2: Describe the scientific method used in psychology and how it can be applied to research associated with consciousness, sleep, sleep disorders, and hypnosis. Be sure to explain how these topics are relevant and why they are interesting to study. (2-3 slides) Section 3: Choose four of the seven modern psychological perspectives listed and explain the similarities and differences between them. (4-6 slides) The Psychodynamic Perspective The Behavioral Perspective The Humanistic Perspective The Biophysical Perspective The Cognitive Perspective The Sociocultural Perspective The Evolutionary Perspective Step 2 Create the slides. Using presentation applications (also referred to as slide ware) such as PowerPoint or Google Slides, organize and display the required information for each of the three sections in a series of presentational slides (also referred to as a slide deck). Note that you are not required to present this project in a live setting; however, you should design these slides as if you were doing so. If you have never created a slide deck before or need some additional help, several resources and tutorial videos are available online. Conduct an Internet browser search for the slide application you are using (for example, Google Slides, PowerPoint, or Keynote) and the search term “tutorial.” Such a search will provide videos and websites that can assist you in creating the slides and using the application. Design your slides with the following in mind: Presentation title slide should be Psychology in Our Lives. All slides should be contained within one file. Label each slide with the slide title and number. Use clear, concise bullet points. Presentations are primarily visual. Avoid including too much written information on your slides. You can include more detailed information in the written script portion of this project. Images and diagrams are wonderful presentation tools to support your message. At the end of the slide deck, include proper citations in APA style for the sources you used, which include images and diagrams (explore the Purdue OWL (Links to an external site.) website for examples). The source citation slide will not count toward your slide total. Step 3 Write the presentation script. Write the text of your script to correspond with each slide as though you were delivering a live presentation. You should write 1 to 2 paragraphs for each slide that expands on the information covered for each individual slide. The script should be written in a professional, yet conversational tone as if you were speaking to a live audience. Write your script in the following manner: Use headings that show the slide number and slide title to indicate the narration for each slide. Use language intended for a live audience as opposed to a reader. Include language that helps your audience follow along, such as “I want to talk more in depth about…” Use clear, concise sentences. Use clear and relatable examples to help explain concepts. At the end of the script document, include proper citations in APA style for the sources you used.

Summative Assessment #5: Emotions Watch the documentary called You Are What You Act. Watch it online at (https://gem.cbc.ca/media/documentary-specials/you-are-what-you-act/38e815a-0134f9f60c9), or you can download the CBC Gem app and watch it on your mobile device. Use what you have learned in this part of the course (neuroscience of emotion: fear, aggression & impulses, expressing & feeling emotion) to write a 1000 word critical review of this documentary (single spaced, 12pt arial font) in the space below. In your critical review, you should draw upon what you have learned in this section of the course to both argue in support of the theory that the way that you act with your body could influence your emotions, cognition, and behaviour, but also discuss critiques/limitations of this same theory. Your essay should clearly demonstrate the breadth and depth of your understanding of the concepts related to fear, aggression, impulse control, and other emotions through your effective use/discussion/application of the concepts/ideas/terms/examples that we have covered in this course. Please ensure that your essay is written in complete sentences and uses the P.I.E. method to organize your ideas into body paragraphs sandwiched between a clear introductory paragraph at the beginning of your essay and a clear concluding paragraph at the end of your essay. Please note that you do not need to cite or reference information that you retrieved from the assigned reading/documentary, the lectures, or your own personal experience. Do not retrieve information from other outside sources.
