In Term 2 Week 7, the Year 11 IBDP Psychology students put their knowledge into practice, swapped seats with the teacher and stepped into the spotlight. Students got into groups to research and prepare a presentation for their classmates on Reconstructive Memory.
The groups were allocated one of three studies: Loftus and Pickerall, exploring how suggestion and prompting could create false memories of autobiographical events, Loftus and Palmer, showing how leading questions can influence eyewitness memories and Neisser and Harsch, investigating the accuracy of highly emotional memories. The students presented their findings on the study to their classmates and deepened their understanding of memory, although this wasn’t just about content. This activity allowed students to gain a greater understanding of their content and develop presentation skills, through a different method of learning. Students developed their skills as IBDP thinkers, communicators, and inquirers.
