General Psych Links


AlleyDog.com is one of my favorite sites.  It has chapter outlines and notes, sample quizzes, 
additional links, a great glossary, and much more.  It's by students for students.
http://www.alleydog.com

THIS IS YOUR TEXTBOOK'S SITE.  LOTS OF STUFF THAT YOU SHOULD TAKE A LOOK AT BEFORE EVERY 
TEST.  There are pre-tests, post-tests, downloadable power points, critical thinking questions, etc.  
At the very top, be sure to choose a chapter.

The AP Psychology Network has many items of interest and valuable information for the Advanced 
Placement student.
http://www.appsychology.net

Yet another comprehensive and data-filled site.  A GREAT place to get additional information to help 
clarify terms and theories.

PsychWeb lives up to its name.  You could get lost in all the directions and information available in 
this site.
http://www.psychwww.com

Amoeba Web is another great starting place to get to so much information that's available on the 
internet.

This is a comprehensive (filled with info) psychology teacher's site that I especially liked.  Great 
outline and info for many psych terms and theories.  Click on "Links" at the top of the page for an 
amazing amount of fun and very informational sites and power points.

This site is called "Neuroscience for Kids", but do NOT let the name fool you.  It has fantastic 
information for AP Psychology related to the brain and nervous system.  I recommend you take some 
time with this site to really explore it to see ALL that it offers.

This is the Advanced Placement information page for parents and students.  It has info regarding the 
benefits, Frequently Asked Questions, exam info, costs, etc.
http://www.collegeboard.com/ap/students/index.html

The site says this is a "Comical Look at the History of Psychology".  If it is supposed to be funny, it 
didn't quite hit its mark.  However, aside from the many typos, it does have quite a bit of info - 
worth a glance.

Brain Briefings...This site has some of the very best articles related to neurosciences that I have seen.  
They are written in a short, easy to follow manner and include some of the best and most effective 
visuals and diagrams that I have seen (not too basic and not too technical).  Some of the topics 
include:  brain injury, development, drugs, eating, emotions, exercise, gender, memory, nervous 
system, pain, the senses, sleep, and technology.

Links for tutorials and demonstrations.

*****GREAT SITE:  Has activities/animations/explanations for multiple chapters.  Fantastic animations  
with explanations for the brain, neurons, eye, ear, etc.  
The only downfall is that some of the animations don't load right away.  You might have to reload 
them and be a little patient (sometimes a problem for me), but they are worth the wait!

*****SAME SITE AS ABOVE, BUT GOES TO THE SELF-QUIZZES.  Once again, very impressive and well 
done.  Gives you instant feedback and explanations for the answers.

The Psi Cafe has tons of stuff including fun items related to psychology and several links to more 
information.
