AP Psychology Unit V: Sensation and Perception Stage 1 – Desired Results Transfer Established Goals: Students will be able to independently use their thinking to … Reading *Students will apply a critical analysis method of active reading to advanced texts and commentary related to the learning and transfer of the concepts within psychology that focus on sensation and perception. Writing *Students will write clearly and effectively in order to plan, draft, edit, and publish a college level paper analyzing the Hellen Keller story for its relationship to sensation and perception as well as classical and operant conditioning. Describe concepts of sensation and perception through the five senses, especially the hearing and vision processes. Describe basic concepts explaining the capabilities and limitations of sensory processes. Meaning UNDERSTANDINGS Students will understand that … 1. 2. 3. There exist basic concepts in sensory processing for vision and hearing that are rooted in the anatomical features of the eyes and the ear and employ physical properties. Understanding Gestalt theorists’ principles assists in explaining the manner in which humans process sensory stimulus Thresholds and perception inform how humans process the environment around them, which influences their behaviors. ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS Students will continually consider … 1. How does top-down and bottom-up processing explain manners in which humans perceive sensory stimuli from their environments? 2. How do Gestalt theorists explain the sensory and perception processes by a pattern of grouping and making meaning from individual stimuli in the environment? 3. How does the anatomy of the eye and the ear contribute to processing stimuli from the environment? *Students will demonstrate understanding of MLA citation and works cited format in various types of writing assignments. Unit reflects the Mission… * Take advantage of rigorous academic opportunities. *Read, write, and compute with clarity, depth, and precision. Acquisition Students will know … Basic concepts of sensory processing, hearing [processes and anatomy], and vision [processes and anatomy] Students will be skilled at … Identification of the anatomy of the eye and its corresponding functions AP Psychology Unit V: Sensation and Perception Habits of Mind *Persisting *Striving for accuracy and precision *Thinking and communicating with clarity and precision.
