Psychology in Action 2023
On Friday, 8 December, students taking part in Psychology in Action for Friday afternoon activities presented their research. Over the term, small groups pupils from Warwick School and Kings High designed, carried out and analysed their findings in a variety of interesting Psychological studies. The winning year 11 group investigated the effects of caffeine on short-term memory and visual perception. Congratulations to Michael, Seun, Tommy, Milan and Moosa. We hope you enjoyed your 1st prize donuts and are displaying your certificates proudly.
Other prize winning studies included an observation on the bystander effect by Sixth Formers Aiden, Marcus and Matt. As well as an investigation into peer pressure and how it can influence your opinions by Melanie, Yangi, Kaitlyn, Ingrid and Lucy. Well done to all of the groups who completed the Psychology in Action course this term and a special mention to Ari for their impressive presentation skills.
A new course will commence in the Lent term for any pupils interested in learning more about Psychology. Do sign up on SOCs, no previous experience or knowledge is required. We offer the activity at foundation level for years 10 and 11, as well as the advanced level for Sixth Form.
