笔试:
外部评估中需要考三张试卷,比SL多出来的那张是关于研究方法的附加内容。
IA:
SL与HL的内部评估部分是写一篇学员进行的简单实验研究的报告,由任课导师进行评分,占总成绩的25%。
1 熟悉案例很重要
心理学相对于其他课程不需要大家死记硬背,但是在学习过程中会接触很多的实验。同学们在学习IB心理学时,关于各类案例、实验调查以及研究一定要熟记于心,多背多记,最好学一个案例记一个案例,并懂得灵活运用。
2 进阶英语表达能力以及阅读能力
因为IB是全英文式教学,那么对于已经习惯中文的学员,英文方面是一个很大的挑战。特别是IB心理学,经常需要大量的英文写作以及阅读,所以,同学们要努力进阶自身的英语能力,避免给我们的学业造成不必要的影响。
3 培养批判性思维方式
在IB心理学课程中,批判性思维能力强的学员得分能力也更强。因此在日常期间要有一个针对性的训练。
4 养成“引用”能力
另外非常重要的一点就是学会“引用”。所谓“引用”即为摘录他人的研究内容,然后标明出处,简述研究内容,并对案例进行分析和评价。
所以,在学习过程中可以自己积累一些可供引用的例证,并试着去使用它们。
