[tips] Online psychology programs
Hi: I'm looking for information about psychology online undergraduate and graduate programs (in the USA or around the world). I would like to gather research-based information in topics such as the public acceptance of online-educated psychologists and online psychology programs, the effectiveness in learning outcomes, the most current challenges, and alumni satisfaction with their education. Best wishes, Alejandro Alejandro Franco Psychology Undergraduate Program Coordinator Northern Catholic University ___ Calle 52 No 47 - 42 Edificio Coltejer Of. 702 PBX (57) (4) 5 14 31 44 .

RE: [tips] Girls and Horses - Archetype?
Hi Michael: Bruno Bettleheim wrote this in his book: The uses of enchantment: the meaning and importance of Fairy Tales (1975). p. 56-57 (you can find it in Amazon.com). Many girls of an older age group are deeply involved with horses; they play with toy horses and spin elaborate fantasies around them. When they get older and have the opportunity, their lives seem to rotate around real horses, which they take excellent care of and seem inseparable from. Psychoanalytic investigation has revealed that overinvolvement in and with horses can stand for many different emotional needs which the girl is trying to satisfy. For example, by controlling this powerful animal she can come to feel that she is controlling the male, or the sexually animalistic, within herself. Imagine what it would do to a girl's enjoyment of riding, to her self-respect, if she were made conscious of this desire which she is acting out in riding. She would be devastated -robbed of a harmless and enjoyable sublimation, and reduced in her own eyes to a bad person. At the same time, she would be hard-pressed to find an equally suitable outlet for such inner pressures, and therefore might not be able to master them. Now you can add this explanation to the Jungian one :) Alejandro -Mensaje original- De: Michael Britt [mailto:mich...@thepsychfiles.com] Enviado el: domingo, 24 de octubre de 2010 07:53 Para: Teaching in the Psychological Sciences (TIPS) Asunto: [tips] Girls and Horses - Archetype? My 11 year old daughter has been interested in horses for a long time (unlike her 11 year old brother, but that's an N of only 2) so not long ago I brought her to a 4H horse farm. I don't visit horse farms that often, but whenever I do I notice that there seems to be a disproportionate number of young girls taking lessons. I mentioned this to a colleague and she agreed and interpreted this in a vague Jungian-archetypal way. I'm not too big on Jung, but I don't have any other explanation. Thoughts?

Hi Beth: For me 3-post-per-day is ok, but I haven't been around long enough to know why that day limit was imposed.

RE: [tips] diploma mills
Hi Tipsters (Im resending the message without the telephone number to avoid spam filters): I think that the website GetEducated.com does a good job searching for diploma mills (please correct me if Im wrong), and they offer good advice to detect this programs. Maybe some of the tipsters will be interested in this example of one of the most prominent graduates: http://www.geteducated.com/diploma-mills-police/life-experience-college-degr ee/289-dog-gets-life-experience-online-mba-degree/ Have a nice day, Alejandro -Mensaje original- De: William Scott [mailto:wsc...@wooster.edu] Enviado el: miércoles, 29 de septiembre de 2010 17:26 Para: Teaching in the Psychological Sciences (TIPS) Asunto: RE: [tips] diploma mills I think the phone number in Scott's original post is an identified spam number (try googling it) and Beth's message got through because she deleted it.

RE: [tips] Professor fired.
Hi Michael: Well, I think that we cant generalize that statement. Some latinas dress conservative too, I dont know if there are statistics on this subject. In northern South America, Central America, and Southern North America, we dont have seasons so most of the time you have hot weather (unless you live in higher mountains). This can influence the way people choose their clothes and fashion tendencies most of the time. For example, people in Bogotá (8357 feet) dress differently from people in Medellin (4822 feet) or Barranquilla (0 feet). Maybe the teachers experience with Latinas makes him think like that, so maybe its a prejudice. What Im wondering about is why was that considered an offensive comment. Or what is the meaning of provocative then. If you say something like that in Colombia I dont think that it would be a reason for fire a teacher, just something to discuss about and maybe make some research. Or maybe we dont know other details about that event. For now these are my two cents.

It just came over my local news channel that a prof at one of Forida's universities has been fired for stating that latina women dress more provocatively than other women.He was accused of being insensitive to cultural differences. Although it could be noted that latinas may have a different perspective on fashion and presentation of self in everyday social and public appearances, this should not be construed as provocative intent. The Mexican reporter who interviewed football players in the locker room did not deserve the comments hurled at her. Maybe we can get some coments from Miguel, Alejandro Franco ,Jose Alves,and the tipster at Cukegio de Maya(Morales) about the dress paradigm of latina women and if it is meant to be provacative. Shakira.Estefan,and Ja Lo come to mind. And has there been a comparison and contrast of latinas with the other co-eds in your classes?

And very good news at that. You may be our only TIPSter from the Southern Hemisphere. Welcome! How's the weather down there? Dry, I'll bet. Regards Stephen Hola Stephen and TIPSters: Thanks a lot for the welcome message. Weather is fine, maybe a little bit of rain and near the 70's, thanks for asking (I think in Sherbrooke, Canada, it's about 54°F right now). I'm near the Equator so we dont have seasons, it's the same temperature all year long (depending on the altitude, I live at 7000 ft or 2150 m), so there are just rainy seasons and dry seasons... There are two universities with very similar names, one of those is the one that you find in Chile (Universidad Catolica del Norte) and the other one is in Colombia (Fundacion Universitaria Catolica del Norte). I'm in Colombia, near Medellin, working for an online psychology program. Two months ago we also have a tragedy with miners in this state (Antioquia), but they weren't so lucky, all 73 died http://www.minesandcommunities.org/article.php?a=10196 so I was really pessimistic with the Chileans at the beginning, and now I'm glad to see that I was wrong. I don't know if I'm the only tipster from South America, but I enjoy a lot the discussion between TIPSters around teaching tips and psychology, that's why I subscribed to the TIPS list and to the PSYTEACH list too. I haven't see something like the APA Division 2 here in South America, so maybe that's why there aren't a lot of latino psychologists in TIPS (and, of course, because of the language barrier). Since last year I've been working trying to overcome a little this barrier translating some teaching tips to Spanish and sharing them with other psychology teachers, making a website about the teaching of psychology in Spanish, having a mail list to share information about the teaching of psychology, and translating to Spanish the main page of the OTRP Teaching of Psychology Idea Exchange http://teachpsych.pbworks.com/ (the En Espanol section). My next step is going to be the Webinars (using Microsoft Office Live Meeting, GotoMeeting, WebEx or similar). Right now it's a kind of solitary effort, but I think that in the future more colleagues will be interested and will also be able to participate more in this knowledge and expertise sharing projects. I hope that all the TIPSters will have a nice weekend, Alejandro _ Alejandro Franco Psychology Coordinator Northern Catholic University Email: alejandro.franc...@gmail.com Skype: ensepsi --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: arch...@jab.org.
