The AP Psychology class at CR North has a summer assignment. Students should have picked it up prior to the summer closing. Newly admitted students should contact the Curriculum Office to get a copy over the summer. The text is 11th ed. Psychology by David Myers (Worth Publishers). This updated text was published in January, 2015. Textbooks will be kept at home and all reading assignments will be done as regularly scheduled homework. Psychologists have shown through their research that distributing your reading over time produces the most effective learning. Adaily homework plan will be distributed with each new chapter as we progress through the year. Websites for researching the Psychology Fair ( after the AP exams).
