Viewing Slides from Psychology 380 Lectures

Welcome to the slide page. The goal here is to allow you view the slides from lectures in the same order that they were presented in class. If all works well, you should be able to click on the lecture of choice and then sit back, click the mouse to advance, and watch it unfold.

However, before you can do that, you have to have "PowerPoint viewer" installed on your machine and you have to have your browser set up to recognize the lectures as PowerPoint files. If you know your machine is configured correctly, click on the lecture(s) of your choice below.

Click here if you need help configuring your computer.

If you continue to have trouble configuring your computer, try using a computer in the Undergraduate Library computing center -- they are set up correctly to view the slides. Computers in Angell Hall will NOT view the slides. If you have successfully used the slides at another campus computing site, please let us know.

Images shown in lecture have been removed due to copyright considerations.
