This course tries to provide context and a sense of interconnectedness. It challenges you to define and refine your own interests in the field while connecting those interests with the various sub-domains of the discipline. The course provides the framework in which you position your own priorities. Advanced General Psychology is not an exercise in memorization of facts. It is widely known that very little learning takes place without a person's motivation to learn.
Motivated learners are active learners.
They seek out what they want to know, and they can tell why they want to know something. This course requires motivated learners. My role as instructor is not simply to deliver the content but to help you learn. At the most basic level, this course provides a review. It is a synthesis that allows you to revisit the main concepts you have dealt with in your program so far and construct a more holistic picture of psychology.
