Required Readings
Your materials this week are an interesting group of materials. There is the usual chapter from your textbook, two podcasts on Chapter 8 (two shorter podcasts since there was a great deal of information), and one podcast on Ethical and Legal Issues. The chapter and materials this week are focused on intelligence testing and how they are used. There is a great deal of information here that you might see on the NCE or the CPCE exam – be sure to save your podcasts for reviews! Also, remember that the podcast is simply a review of the materials in the text for those who like to have the audio review.
