Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Introduce students to main concepts in cognitive psychology and the methods that support those ideas. A reflexive question should be "What is the evidence?" The eBook, lectures and assignments are intended to increase each student's ability to think logicially and critically about that evidence. This course fulfills the Social-Scientific Thought distribution requiremnt, defined by the College as, "Courses that employ systematic analysis of qualitative, quantitative, and/or ethnographic information drawn from the human world. These courses develop, test, and explain concepts and theories about human behavior, either individual or collective, and differentiate knowledge derived from observations of the human world from other sorts of knowledge."
