GCSE Psychology by distance learning - The Course

Each lesson of the GCSE Psychology course begins with a set of clearly stated objectives and an explanation of its place in the overall programme of study.

Effective learning is encouraged through frequent activities and self-assessment questions, and there is guidance for the preparation of coursework and a large number of simply drawn and easy-to-copy illustrations. There are eight tutor-marked assignments, including one practice exam paper. No previous knowledge of the subject is assumed or required.

Key Topics Covered

The 2010 course covers the entire syllabus in eight modules:
