[tips] Martin Bolt

2009-12-27 Thread michael sylvester
 I know of Martin Bolt.His instructional exercises came in a blue box with 
learning objectives for each chapter,and suggested readings.This came about the 
same time there was a text from another author which consisted of modules.The 
Bolt blue box also contained scales of personality such as determining locus of 
control.
I was teaching at predominantly black institutions at that time and I did not 
find any social psychology text at that time that went into depth of addressing 
the Afrocentric perspective.A text by Katz "Towards the elimiation of prejudice"
was good.Most social -psyh topics appear to be more relevant to highly 
sophisticated cultural societies.I am not certain if Gordon Allport's 
constructs re prejudice would be relevant today.

You are not the one who should be kicked off the list. The continuously 
insulting jackass should be. But we keep replying to his insults and taking the 
bait. What ever happened to extinction?

This braying j**kass has no idea what he is talking about. Doesn't know a damn 
thing about Bolt. Just making more insulting noise.


So kick me off the list for saying it. It's the truth.

Martin Bolt  is a good example of the Eurocentric consensus in psychology and 
so are the other social psychologists
like Pedigree and Aronson.The group processes idea of social psychology and its 
underpinnings are a reflection of a paradigm that failed to take into account 
the unique  African-American perspective.
His works are interesting reading but one should be cognizant of the  
historical context.

I'll have to do more reading about Pedigree.  I believe he may have developed 
the family tree method of behavior genetic analysis.

Re: [tips] Martin Bolt

2009-12-26 Thread Britt, Michael
I remember when I first started teaching in the early '90s I was  
provided by the publisher the instructor's manual by Martin Bolt.  I  
found it to me a gold mine of classroom activities, tips and ideas to  
extend student learning beyond the book.  I valued it so much that I  
asked for another copy - one for home and one for the office - so that  
I would never be without it.  I always turned to Dr. Bolt's manual for  
ideas on how to make the lecture come to life.  As  Phil de Haan said  
in his speech for Dr. Bolt when he received the presidential award, he  
was a "teacher's teacher".
