Hello group!

So, looking at some of the topics on Professor Counsil's page it is majorly female psychologists. A few of them that need some more work and need some improvement on wikipedia is Susan Carey, E. Mavis Heatherington, or Mary Henle's wikipedia page could use some more information too. Those are some I looked at! There could be some other topics that we might be more interested in if we look in the book.

I have do not have any certain topics in mind. I am fine with doing one of those psychologists. I would not mind having our topic on Susan Carey, but if you tow prefer a different one we can discuss the best topic for all three of us. Or we can also look at a disorder that is not described too much on wikipedia. Let me know some thoughts. I will also look up some other stuff for our topic, but if you both are fine with writing more about Susan Carey then lets just do that.

Hey guys, I just looked up the page for Susan Carey and I believe that should be our top choice, because like Ashley there is not too much information about her. I feel like we would be able to find more information pretty easily and have a better chance of choosing a topic. If you agree with me say yay or nah! haha and if you do agree just let me know our second choice if someone else also has her as their top choice.

yay! Ashley.miller.2 (talk) 17:32, 15 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

There also is not anything for a wikipedia page for Frank Nugent Freeman, who is a ma that did studies on the genetics of twins. He is in our text book chapter 7.

Sorry I'm so late to the game here, I've been so busy. I looked over everything that you both had mentioned and I also looked into the top two choices for our articles. I agree on the choices of Susan Carey and Frank Freeman!! Savannah.m.voeltz (talk) 13:53, 16 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

Your topic: Susan Carey

Hello Group 7: I think Susan Carey is a great choice. She's done some very interesting work on concept development in children. I have a book by her if you want to borrow it. Always good to represent more women scientists in Wikipedia. J.R. Council (talk) 03:58, 19 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
