PSYCHOLOGY
Level 3                                            ½ Credit
    Are you interested in why you and other people behave the way they do?  If so, this is the course for you.  Psychology is the study of behavior and mental processes.  This course attempts to describe, explain, predict, and possibly control, human behavior.   Topics include a historical overview of the science, research methods, learning, memory, intelligence, emotions, sexuality, dreams, personality theory, and psychological disorders.  Throughout the course, students will be challenged to examine their own motivations and behavior, as well as those of the individuals in their lives.  Active participation in discussions is highly encouraged.
