Here's only the most pertinent info--I'll discuss details today in class.

Class will meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 12:00 p.m. - 1:10 p.m
All class meetings will be held in Broad Hall 214.

My OFFICE HOURS will be on:

Wednesdays from 3:30 p.m. - 4:30 p.m.

If I need to change these as the semester's schedule becomes clearer, I'll obviously let you know.  Also, if by any bizarre twist of events this turns out not to be enough, I'll certainly arrange for others.  In addition, I'm free to be scheduled -- in fact, I'd actually prefer it if you'd make an appointment with me if you'd like to talk.  Under any circumstances, I'll be in my office or lab lots, so you can just drop on in.

The TEXTBOOK we'll be reading is:

Cole, M., Cole, S.R., and Lightfoot, C. (2004).  The development of children, (5th ed.).  New York: Worth Publishers.

A note about requirements related to experiential learning:

In addition to standard tests and papers, everyone in Psych 105 this semester will be expected to participate in the experiential learning part of the course.  This year, this part will involve either tutoring/mentoring in the CLASP program or an internship arranged through CCCSI or The Children's School.  This week in class you will be given information about how this part of the course will work.  You will then be expected to work in one of these community sites, helping out.  Ordinarily, "interns" are expected to show up for a couple of hours each week and  see firsthand how real live children work (or fail to work).  I guarantee that this will be a memorable and valuable learning experience for everyone (and at the same time, you'll be doing a very good deed).
