Social Studies

Psychology/Sociology

Social Studies 142

Psychology is an upper level social studies elective which will prepare students for commonly required first year college courses in psychology.  It will also help them understand themselves, and the interaction of those around them.  Psychology studies human development and examines the bases of individual behavior.  Topics covered will be the brain, learning, child development, personality theory and behavioral disorders.  Sociology studies the dynamics of group interaction, including social structures, social institutions, and the causes and consequences of social problems.  The course will emphasize both textbook content and its application to students' individual lives and the world in which they live.  (Consider scheduling this course as a course integrated with either English 12 Advanced Placement or Honors.)
