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.
