A general introduction to the scientific study of the behavior of organisms. An honors section (1009) may be available for qualified students.
This introductory course will provide students with basic knowledge and overview of the science and methods of psychology. The course is designed to provide an appreciation of human behaviors and applications in everyday lives. Topics will include the historical foundations of psychology, psychological methods, learning, memory, motivation, cognition, adult development, behavioral change, human factors, and social behavior. The course will be conducted in a seminar format in which students will develop skills for critical thinking, content acquisition, writing, presentation of ideas in front of peers, the integration of contents in students’ own areas of interest, as well as small group collaboration in knowledge acquisition and presentation. The class prepares the students for advanced study in psychology.
Class Rules & Attendance The University of New Orleans International Summer School program has a mandatory class attendance policy. All students are required to attend class for all classes and any required lectures and field trips. No unexcused absences are allowed. However, UIBK students who have to miss a UNO class due to UIBK examinations in the first two weeks of our program, can receive one excused absence for this. Any further unexcused class days will result in an academic penalty. Each faculty member determines the penalty for missed classes. Most professors deduct a letter grade for each additional missed class day. For details, please refer to your course syllabi, which will be distributed on the first day of class.
