Wisconsin Teachers of Psychology  Newsletter
 
Welcome Back Everyone:
 
I hope everyone had a fantastic summer and the 2010-2011 school year is off to a great start.  As in the past, I am planning to send out these email newsletters to all WI psychology teachers (and a few very special teachers in Northern IL) throughout the course of the year.  Rather than have a set schedule for the letters, my thought is to send them out whenever the news requires such.
 

AP Psychology Scores for 2010
 
On May 11, 2010, 177,708 students from around the world took the AP Psychology Exam.  Below you will find how those students did on the test.  A majority of colleges will give students credit for a score of 3 or above.  I will send out the statistics specific to WI when they are released in the spring.

College Board One-Day AP Psychology Workshops
 
Every year the College Board sponsors a number of one-day workshops for AP Psychology teachers.  The workshops are conducted by endorsed AP consultants and provide information about the AP Psychology Program.  Teachers just beginning in AP Psychology as well as those of you who has been teaching the course for many years are welcome to attend.
 
This year the College Board is offering seven different workshops in the Midwest Region.  Below you will find the dates and locations along with the consultant currently scheduled to run the workshop.  Please be aware the consultant information is subject to change as needed.

Changes in the AP Psychology Program
 
This summer saw a number of changes to AP Psychology.  Everything from changing the date of the AP Psychology Exam to restructuring the grading of the exam.  A few weeks back I put a posting on the Teaching High School Psychology Blog (http://teachinghighschoolpsychology.blogspot.com) detailing many of these changes.  You can find the specific posting at  http://teachinghighschoolpsychology.blogspot.com/2010/09/news-on-ap-psychology.html 
 

Future WI Teachers of Psychology Newsletters
 
Please contact me if you have something of interest to WI psychology teachers.  Last year I know our newsletters detailing psychology openings in the state, helped a number of people.  Please fee free to email me at kko...@germantown.k12.wi.us  I'm planning the next newsletter to come out sometime in mid-October.  I would especially like to include news of interest to all psychology teachers, AP and high school level psychology.
 

Updating the WI Teachers of Psychology Database
 
Over the course of the summer, I did my best to update our database of email addresses.  As there are over 500 high schools, public and private, throughout the state, I am confident the listing still has a number of errors in it.  I am looking to all of you for some help.
 
Please contact me if you are receiving these emails and would prefer not to.  If you know of another teacher, in your building or in a nearby school district, please send me a quick note.  Any and all help you could provide would be appreciated.
 
Below you will find a few of my current problems/questions.  The first grouping includes teachers that I know their name but don't have an email address for.  The second group involves schools that, according to their websites, have some type of psychology program, but I'm at a loss as to who teaches the course.  The last group I've determined does not include psychology in their school's curriculum.  If you know that to be incorrect, please send me whatever information you might have.
