PSYCHOLOGY 12

Psychology is the study of human behaviour. We explore fascinating questions such as: why do we do what we do? What makes us who we are? How do our minds change and develop over time? In this class, we will:

• Explore human development, learning, memory, emotions, stress, trauma, wellness, sleep, alternate states of

consciousness, psychological disorders, personality, bias, motivation, therapy, and mental health

• Conduct social experiments to further our understanding of behaviour

• Participate in self-directed inquiry projects to better understand ourselves and the world around us

• Share our learning about the mind with our community

This course is recommended for any student who seeks a better understanding of their own behavior and that of others. The course will also prepare the university/college bound student by giving them a great introduction to the Psychology field.
