Class Experience

US Grade 7 - 10
Are you interested in a specific topic within psychology? Your curiosity will drive our lessons. In this one-on-one class, learners will choose topics to study in depth with me.

Psychology is a big field, so we have many different options. Here's a few suggestions:

- Abnormal psychology (disorders)
- Forensic psychology (criminal behavior)
- Personality psychology (unique differences between people)
- Social psychology (how we relate to other people)
- Developmental psychology (how people change or stay the same over time)
- Designing a research study (this is especially important if you want to go to graduate school)

No prior knowledge of psychology is needed.

Learning Goals

Students will gain in-depth knowledge of a single topic in psychology, practice critical thinking, and conversation skills.

Other Details

External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Sources
All of our material will come from scientific journals, such as Psychological Science (https://journals.sagepub.com/home/pss).
