I WILL PUT THE ASSIGNMENTS/ DOCUMENTS SO I WOULD BE NEEDING just the 700-
1000.The Professional Work Samples section demonstrates your performance and mastery
of Argosy University’s program outcomes/competencies for the Psychology major. Select 3-
5 documents to serve as samples of your best work in the program. Together, they should
illustrate your mastery of all the 7 program outcomes listed below. Examples of the type of
work that would illustrate each outcome is provided below, as well. The 3-5 documents
should be samples of your work that you completed in previous courses as an
undergraduate student.These outcomes are listed below, along with the assignments that
could be included to demonstrate mastery of the outcome: Cognitive abilities (critical
thinking and information literacy): Assignments or projects that demonstrate problem
solving, analysis, synthesis, appropriate use of information resources, etc. Research skills:
A copy of a research proposal, a survey developed, etc. Communication skills (written and
oral): A topic paper, presentation outline, or PowerPoint that demonstrates your written
and oral communication skills. Ethics & Diversity awareness: Papers that demonstrate
your understanding and/or analysis of ethical and diversity issues in psychology.
Knowledge of foundations of the field: Assignments, papers, or projects that demonstrate
your understanding of basic concepts, theories, and empirical findings in one or more of the
domains of psychology, including biological, cognitive, developmental, personality, and
social. Knowledge of applied psychology: Assignments, papers, or projects from courses
and/or an internship that demonstrates your ability to apply psychology to personal, social,
and/or organizational problems. Interpersonal Effectiveness: PowerPoint presentations,
videos of your presentations that demonstrate your ability to communicate effectively,
appreciate diversity and cultural sensitivity and awareness of your impact on others.Once
you have assembled your work samples, you will write a 700-1000 word narrative to serve
as a preface to the Professional Work Samples section. This narrative should consist of a
clear and thoughtful analysis of how each work sample reveals your strengths and areas for
improvement, according to each of the seven areas addressed in the program
outcomes/competencies (listed above). Towards this purpose, you will complete the
Student Self Appraisal of Learningfirst, and then use that to generate the preface . Make sure
you also address how you intend to strengthen your competencies in all areas as you
graduate onto the next step of your professional career. On which areas will you focus most
and why?This preface should also include an evaluation of the Psychology program as well

these strengths and overcome these weaknesses in the future.
