L6 Psychology pupils have been learning different concepts in a variety of unusual ways. In a lesson about correlations they tested a theory that the amount of saliva that is produced during a lemon test is correlated to a person’s personality type by counting how many licks they can do on a piece paper in 2 minutes! They completed Eysenck Personality Test beforehand to assess the Extraversion scores. There was lots of laughter especially when eating lemons at the end!
On a sweeter note pupils then learnt about different sampling techniques that researchers can use to choose their sample. The best way to learn these different techniques – use skittles to learn the vocabulary! In a lesson about the concept of reliability in research their task was draw a house and then write the instructions for someone else to draw the same house! Much laughter ensued when they realised that their friends’ drawings of their drawings didn’t match despite standardised instructions! More photos here.
