Psychological Literature Curriculum
What follows are a collection of assignments and readings which are commonly (but not necessarily always) used in Mr.Cornet’s courses. They are offered here for students who may have been absent and who need to get a copy of them. By offering them online, it is hoped that . . .
- All students will have fewer missing/late assignments.
- These will support the learning of students with special needs and English Language Learners by making available necessary assignments and notes to their programs' support staff and parents.
- Students (both in my course and elsewhere in the nation) will have more material to review
- Educators around the world may find these of value to their own instructional practices.
Let me stress that these certainly do not include everything we do (absent below, for instance, would be most film pieces and discussion prompts) and - while these are in support of the course - they are no substitute to make up for habitual nonattendance. Rather, the curriculum which follows represent a collection of assignments commonly utilized in class and offer a glimpse of the type of material and learning's the course covers. Questions may be directed to the instructor at John.Cornet@Phoenix.K12.Or.Us
