Dr. Burnham's PSYC 110 Assignments Page Below are links to the homework assignments to complete throughout the semester. There are more assignments posted below than you are required to complete. I strive to list these in chronological order, but you should refer to your syllabus for the actual due dates. These can be downloaded from the web (and from Angel) or copied and pasted into a text editor (e.g., MS Word). Completed assignments MUST be turned in as an electronic file using the Angel course system through the appropriate dropbox. Handwritten copies and copies emailed to me or to the TA's are unacceptable and will not be graded! Late assignments will not be graded! !!IMPORTANT!! Unless noted, assignments are to be completed individually. Mass-produced assignments, or mass-produced responses to any part of an assignment, will be identified and are considered plagiarism. First offense: Fail that assignment. Second offense: Fail this course! Tips 1) Check these out soon and "be prepared"--it's the boy scout's motto!
2) Start early--'nough said.
3) Have fun with this and be creative--it's just human behavior!
4) Think critically, ask for help, seek help--education is not regurgitating information.
