Tipsters--
Help! If anyone has any energy or creativity remaining at this point in the term, I'd
like to borrow some of it. I'm writing the final exam for my general psych course &
would like to include a comprehensive essay question. My goal is to get the students
to step back a bit & look at the forest instead of the trees. In particular, I'd like
them to do some reflection on the semester & to incorporate ideas from several
different chapters that we've covered.
Has anyone tried this? What have been your experiences? (Please don't tell me it was
a complete flop--I'm already committed to the comprehensive question!) Any thoughts
would be appreciated.
