DON'T TALK LATIN IN FRONT OF THE BOOKS

... said Giles to Xander in a great episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. My original plan was to build a psychology website entirely around Geek interests. So, I'd explain Gollum's obedience to Frodo in terms of Agency Theory and explore Luke Skywalker's Oedipus Complex; I'd look at intergroup conflict between vampires and werewolves or Purebloods and Mudbloods; I'd examine how the Doctor forgot about Clara in terms of semantic and episodic memory.
And I might still do that. Oh yes. I think I shall.
But first, I'll just get this site up as a conventional set of study resources for students (and teachers, why not?) following Edexcel's new (2015) Specification for A-Level Psychology.
Because the Spec is new, there's a lack of stuff out there, especially for the contemporary studies and some of the more outre theories. There are a couple of textbooks but, since they were penned before the spec was quite finalised, they err on the safe side by including wa-a-a-ay too much. No doubt 2nd editions will roll off the press with a bit more exam focus. Until then, I'm setting myself the task of resourcing this course. I'm trying to include a bit more information than students strictly need - you you've got choices to make - but not so much that it overwhelms.
I'm following the APRC (Aims, Procedures, Results, Conclusions) and GRAVE (Generalisability, Reliability, Application, Validity, Ethics) mnemonics approved by Edexcel, but adding a few of my own. I'm indebted to Ali Abbas whose excellent INSET has thrown so much light on this course. Get this guy into your school to talk about Psychology. And Lord of the Rings.
