This is an elective class for sophomores, juniors and seniors. The focus of the class is that students take an introspective look at their personal lives using a variety of theoretical offerings to guide them.
Adolescence is like a maze for most young people.
There are so many choices and opportunities, and just as many pressures. By having greater awareness of what motivates human beings toward various behaviors, students can then focus on their assets and liabilities and work toward becoming fully functioning human beings. Of particular importance is the development of the individual through the life cycle. Students will work with one another and as individuals to create a thorough portfolio of writings which will demonstrate understanding and awareness of psychological and sociological theory. Relating these theories into the reality of their own personal lives is a key to success in the course.
