Welcome Affiliates 2009-2010

Dear affiliates of academic year 2009/2010,

We would like to say welcome to all of you. I hope the first a week and a half have been fun and exciting. This is the platform for us (Brad, Irma, & Matthias) to transmit various information about the seminars and assignments that you need to complete. We will post relevant information on this blog as they come up and email you everything we post here, so make sure we have your correct email address.

First, there is going to be a sign-up sheet for seminar slots this Wednesday on the wall outside the common room on BW 3rd floor from 1.30 p.m.. If your primary department is Psychology, or if you're taking 2 psych courses, you need to put your name for one of the slots. There is a limit of 10 students for each slot, so please choose another slot if one gets filled up. Note that this is not the final seminar allocation so do email us if you have a problem with this.

The sign-up sheet will be taken down on Friday ~2.30p.m., and we will email you about the final seminar allocation on Saturday, Oct 10.

Second, remember to send an email to Matthias (m.gruber@ucl.ac.uk) about your psych courses and timetable for non-psych courses (e.g., Fri 2.4p.m.).

We look forward to seeing you next week for the first seminar meeting.

Best,
Matthias and Irma

Welcome affiliates Spring 2009

Iwould like to say welcome again to UCL and to the
department of psychology.

During the next week, you'll be flooded with various information
about UCL, and about life in London.
More importantly, you'll need to decide what courses you'll be doing
this term. As mentioned in the induction session, please take
your time in deciding this.

The psychology classes do not get full until the end of registration
period thus you will have time to think about it, sit in the lectures,
and/or discuss with us on which courses to take, before you then
register online on PORTICO (deadline is 23 Jan). There is no reason to
hurry on this.

There will be course approval drop-in sessions on Wednesday, 14 Jan
2-3 pm in the 3rd floor common room and Monday, 19 Jan 2-4pm in room
313, Bedford Way.

There are also two seminar sessions on Wednesday, 14 Jan in room 305,
Bedford Way.
Surnames A-J 9 a.m., surnames K-Z 10 a.m.

For full-year students, seminars will officially kick off in the next 2 weeks so watch this space.

If you have any questions, feel free to email Brad Duchaine, Matthias
Gruber, or Irma Kurniawan.


I hope you have a pleasant and challenging experience with your study
at UCL and play in London.


With best wishes,


Irma Kurniawan
Affiliate demonstrator

Information about essay submission for Fall-term students

5 November 2008

Below are some information for Fall-term students.

Just to remind you again that all Fall-term students who are taking a psychology course have to submit two essays with 2000-words MAXIMUM length for each course. (Some course convenors have agreed that you can submit one 4000 words essay instead, but you need to check that this is the case for your particular course). The essay needs to roughly conform with APA guidelines. Please contact your seminar demonstrator if you have any doubts about the APA format.

All essays need to be handed in at the General Office, Bedford Way level 3 on
*12th December 2008 at 4.30 p.m. *
You need to submit ONE hard copy of each essay with a signed seminar essay declaration form which can be found at the General Office. You'll also need to email the electronic version of the essays to i.kurniawan@ucl.ac.uk with your surname, course code, and 'essay1' or 'essay 2' as the email subject. Please do this by 13th December 2008 at 1 p.m. (e.g., kurniawan, 2207,essay1).

Remember to put the course name and code and the name of the course convenor on the declaration form - not Brad's, Irma's, Matthias' name, or the name of the person who gave the lecture that the essay is on.


Best,
Irma
