Fall 2008 Term Starts Tomorrow
Which means, the lecturecasts restart soon. I will be doing a short talk for first year students, a bit different than the ones I have done recently. This will be just a few tips for success, that sort of thing.
This term I am teaching the following courses:
Psychology 2606 – Brain and Behaviour
Psychology 3306 – Learning
Psychology 3906 – Special Topics in Psychology: Evolutionary Psychology
I will be podcasting all of those. Lecturecasts themselves will start next week, as well, the first week is pretty much me saying ‘Hi my name is Dave, here is the course outline’ and stuff like that. Hardly compelling content…
To any new students or listeners, welcome, and to former students and long time listeners, welcome back!

Bonus Episode – Dave at Podcasters Across Borders 2008
Hey, and you thought you were done with me until September… Well, I presented this talk at the recent meeting of Podcasters Across Borders 2008 in Kingston, ON. My talk was entitled “Social (Media) Science” (pretty clever eh?) Basically I discussed using podcasting, and other online tools, in my classes.
This was originally released on the show Canadian Podcast Buffet, and i am posting it here with the permission of a really tall guy named Mark.

Psychology 2606 (Spring 2008) – Thinking
We started philosophically, so we shall end that way as well…. This is the last lecturecast of the term. This fall I will be teaching Learning, Evolutionary psychology and brain and behaviour, so tune in for those. Oh, I still have not released the psych honours thesis talks, and I still plan to.
If you have some odd need to hear my voice… why not check out Broca\’s Area, Tangential Convergence or thunderbird six, and if you are a kid, or just child like (or childish…) check out Why?
Have a great summer.

Psychology 2606 (Spring 2008) – Vision
Vision is cool, I wish I could see better….
This lecture is dedicated to my father, Rick Brodbeck, the man that taught me how to be a Dad, and how to be a man. Thanks Dad. You will be missed. Donations if you wish, in Dad’s memory can be made to the Caring Bridge or the Brain Tumor Foundation of Canada.

Psychology 1106 (Spring 2008) – Learning
Spit and twitches…
Note, this is a repost of last summer\’s learning lecture, which in turn was a repost of the 06 lecture, this topic seems to be bad luck for me… (I had set up something incorrectly on my recorder). The recording was originally done with my iPod and an iTalk, which does not have the same audio recording quality, sorry about that.

Psychology 1106 Marks Posted
Both tests one and two are posted here.
Ummm, apparently test 2 was pretty hard. OK, I am going to, once I have marks for the two people that are left to write the test have done it, adjust the marks. In other words, some sort of formula will be applied to your grades to make your grades higher.
