Introduction:

  • A couple reasons why I chose the Psychology major to explore
    • Father was a psychology major at UNE
    • My sister is studying psychology at Wheaton college
    • I am very interested in human behavior (why people do the things they do)
  • What I thought Psychology was
    • Was I close? Or was I very far off?

Professor Interview:

  • How did I get in contact with Professor Burman and that experience
    • He was the first professor I contacted
    • He was very reasonable and was very willing to do an interview
  • How I felt going into the interview
    • Kind of anxious, but overall kind of excited
    • New experience
  • 1 quote from the interview
    • explanation
  • Reflection of the interview
    • It made me realize that this wasn’t  just something that I could do and then forget about everything I learned. I am dealing with my future

Student Interview:

  • How I got in contact with Sarah and Sophia
  • How I felt going into the interviews
  • 1 quote from each 
    • Explanation for both
  • Reflection of the interview

Schoolwork and Real-World Work:

  • Careers I would consider if I was to go into the psychology major
  • Courses
  • Look at PLT

Reflection:

  • Look at PLT
    • I will consider the psychology major
    • Seemed to fit me really well
    • But, need to do other research on other majors

Reflection of dry run:

I think what will work for me is following my plt and kind of going more in depth with some ideas and using a slideshow to help guide my presentation. One thing that I will want to change is to try and use the quotes I have to build on top of what I am already talking about, instead of just sharing a quote that doesn’t really follow what I am talking about. I liked tralee’s idea of having some notes to go along side her slide so shes not reading straight off the slide.
