Extra Credit Opportunity

EXTRA CREDIT OPPORTUNITY FOR PSYCHOLOGY STUDENTS: Due no later than Friday, April 01, 2016! (Seriously! This is no April Fools Joke!)

I am offering all psychology students an opportunity to earn extra credit points toward their 3rd marking period grade by finding articles of psychological importance/interest, that can be used for class discussion, and posting them to our class Twitter account along with a brief question pertaining to the article.  You will receive 10 bonus points for each tweet, with a limit of 3 tweets per student (for a total of 30 bonus points). You may not duplicate another student's article. To help me keep things organized and searchable, please mention our class username,@BruceAlmightey and label your tweets with the following hashtag: #brucediscussionquestions 



How do I sign up?

Twitter is a free site---all you need is access to a computer or smart phone. To sign up for an account:
If you don't have a Twitter account, it's easy to sign up and create one.  Follow the instructions below. Even if you already tweet, you may want to make another account for this class.  It's up to you if you want to follow the class site "Bruce's Classes" (@BruceAlmightey) with your existing personal account or not. If you want to create a new account instead, please feel free to do so. 


  1. Go to www.twitter.com
  1. Click the big green “sign-up now” button
  1. Insert your name and email address to create your account
  1. Once you get to your account main page, you can go to the “settings” button and make your account private, that is only those who have approved access (those you invite) can see what you are saying or  you can choose to leave it public.
