For this class, you respond to an article.
The purpose of this assignment is for you to see how psychology plays a part in the real world.
This is where you will earn 100 points for summarizing PsycPORT articles.
Here is how to earn your 100 points:
Find an article from THIS WEBSITE: https://www.apa.org/news/psycport/
(Links to an external site.)
Choose an article (ANY article you like).
For 100 points, your entry should have…
The link to the ACTUAL article you chose, NOT just https://www.apa.org/news/psycport/! (20 points)
200 words or more summarizing the article in your own words. You can also give your own thoughts on the article. (80 points)
I only take off up to 10% off for grammar mistakes, so while you should do your best to use proper grammar, what is more important is that you use your own words and do your own work on this essay.
Do not take other people’s work and pass it off as your own.
You will be entering your essay into essay question fields in Canvas.
You will NOT need to submit a Word document to Canvas to complete this assignment.
The summary is worth 100 points out of your course grade.
Here is how to earn points:
Link to Article included: 20 Points

Total: 100
Grammar errors: -1 up to a maximum of -10 points (10%)
