A Lesson in Speed Dating

September 28, 2016

The Year 12 Psychology students enjoyed their ‘Psychologists Cocktail Party’ on Wednesday 28th September. Students were each allocated a well-known psychologist to research and represent, such as Freud, Bandura and Loftus. At the cocktail party, the students had a ‘speed dating’ activity where they had 2 minutes to meet each psychologist, to find out about each other’s roles.

The students prepared really well for the cocktail party and enjoyed the refreshments in the specially decorated classroom.
