AP Psych: Pre-AP review


The following three GoogleDocs are due via e-mail by 11:59 PM, the day prior to your presentation.

1. A one-page review sheet for your classmates that:
- includes a list of terms from your unit not already on the SpizzarkChizzart.
- includes one of the unit test’s essay questions, followed by a “30/30” essay.

2. Each group is responsible for creating AP exam-style multiple-choice questions, 3 per group member. These are to be original questions, not recycled from tests or reviews. Start with easy questions and build up to more difficult ones, as this format mirrors the AP exam. (You may include terms from the SpahkChaht.) List the answers at the end of the document, after a page break.

3. Also, each group is to create an AP exam-style essay question that incorporates terminology from their unit, as well as two other units. There are to be a minimum of 6 “points” available for your essay. Provide a comprehensive scoring guide for your question as well.

Your group will be responsible for 10-12 minutes of classtime review for your assigned unit. You may use any combination of the materials listed above, or create something new for your classmates. Your review is not to consist of you reading terms from your review sheet.

Do not make photocopies for your classmates, please. This is a 120-point project.

Here's a link to the spread sheet showing the links to student-created materials.. Here's the other document we looked at in class that shows our order of units this year and which chapters line up with the AP's categories.
