Homework: Psychology
For these homework always be sure to identify all parts of the homework by labeling them MATCH, USE, SUMMARIZE, etc. in your document. As always, type up your paper in a separate document. You can then copy and paste it into the "write submission" box or attach it to the homework. Remember that spelling, grammar, punctuation, and sentence structure matter. These papers should always look professional. Also, use terminology from the chapter and be sure to bold it.
In separate, complete paragraphs, complete each of the following. Do not write about the same concept from the chapter more than once.
1. Match one thing you learned about in this chapter to something that can be applied to a job you have had. Be sure to tell me what the job was, but you don't have to give lots of details. It could have been something as simple as babysitting for a younger sibling (not that that's always easy!) or a professional occupation you currently hold (such as RN, sales manager, etc.)
2. Use a different thing you learned about in this chapter to make a prediction about how you could apply it to getting/keeping/improving your dream job. (Obviously, if you don't yet have your dream job, talk about getting that dream job. If you already have it, talk about keeping it or making an improvement to the job to better meet your expectations.)
3. Summarize one primary level study that was discussed in this chapter. Give the citation, so I know which one you are talking about (for example, Smith & Jones, 2001). Your summary must tell me what they did (briefly), what they found (relevant results), and how their research applies to one or more of the concepts discussed in the chapter. Be sure to call attention to the concept name by putting it in bold.
4. Develop 3 Test questions based on concepts in this chapter (and about which you haven't already written for this homework). Two must be multiple choice. One must be true/false. Be sure to identify the correct answers. Also, these questions should NOT test students on definitions. That's too easy.
a. Your questions should encourage critical thinking, but not be impossible to answer. Read over "Tips for writing good test questions" in the MUSTANG HOMEWORKS folder in our course blackboard page.
5. Apply one thing you learned in this chapter to the fantasy organization you designed to make it a better, safer, more efficient, more diverse, more inclusive, more enjoyable, or more productive work environment. Be sure it isn't something you already wrote about for this homework. And remind me what your fantasy organization is and, as always, BOLD the concepts you are writing about so they are clearly identifiable as I grade.
6. Network something in this chapter back to an earlier chapter. That is, tell me how something you learned about in this chapter relates to or complements or expands on something you learned about in a previous chapter.
7. Grade this chapter. On a scale of A, B, C, D, F, tell me what grade you would give this chapter in terms of how much useful information it contained for your career plans. Refer to specific concepts. Which specific elements of the chapter do you think you will be able to take with you into your career and use? This can be a review of items you mentioned above.
