IMPORTANT NOTE ON HYBRID COURSE STATUS

This is a “hybrid” course. This means that the actual time you spend in class will be approximately half that of a traditional course. In other words, although this class would normally meet twice a week, you will only meet once per week. The other half of the course takes place online, asynchronously – which means you can work at your own pace as long as you meet the deadlines for the assignments. The hybrid format gives students more control over their schedule but is equally as demanding as a traditional course and therefore requires self-motivation, initiative, and strong time-management skills to succeed.

    The discipline of psychology is a broad field of study covering many topic areas. Some psychologists study complex interactions between neurons within the brain as humans’ process information or exhibit particular behaviors. Other psychologists focus on the ways that groups and larger social processes influence individual behavior. Still others design experiments to examine the mental processes of humans and various other species of animals. Despite this broad range, psychology can be unified as a discipline focused on the scientific study of behavior and mental processes. This course will be a broad overview of the many approaches and perspectives on understanding the mind and behavior that contribute to the discipline of psychology. Through this course you will develop a basic understanding of the different perspectives and content domains in psychology as well as key concepts, theories and organizing principles within the field.

    “Give me liberty or give me death.” (henry). This is a famous quote from the talented American revolunist Patrick Henry. It was said that henry could position his audience to anger, fear or laughter more sudden then professional actors. He showed this talent in his Speech at the Virginia Conventiomn. The most popular poets and writers uses multiple techniques and strategies to grasp their audience attention. The rhetorical devices include pathos, that appeals to emotion, ethos, which means authority, logos introduces logic. Many revolunist uses the rhetorical triangle, which is “the art of enchanting the soul” (plato). Arthur Miller uses these styles as well in his play The Crucible. I strongly believe that henry used ethos, pathos and rhetorical questioning to connect with the audience in The Crucible.…

    Once a loss occurs within a family there is always a number of ways the family can get through their pain. A family can choose what role a loss is going to play in their lives. Either they can let the pain subside slowly or quickly get over it and move on, but I do not personally think one can truly accept losing a family member without some sort of grieving process involved. One family may choose denial, and resistance to let a loved one go, while another family may grief together to console one another. Once a family goes through a lose it becomes apparent that it can happen to anyone.…
