Many people are fascinated by serial killers. They are compelling because they are different from the "rest of us", yet they live among us. In this class, we will take a psychological approach to understanding serial killers. We will study one psychological theory and at least one serial killer case each week. By learning about theories and research in-depth, learners will gain "building blocks" in order to critically analyze cases. This is a semester-long study of psychology. Because of the multi-week format, we will be able to discuss in-depth theories and current research in forensic psychology. Learners will be able to listen to lectures, complete independent research projects, participate in discussions, and play review games. We will have graded homework such as short quizzes, critical thinking assignments, and independent review sessions. Please see the syllabus for the topics we will cover.

Orientación para padres
This class focuses on criminal behavior. I will focus on the psychology behind why people commit crimes, but I will not focus on specific details of the crimes. For example, we will discuss factual details about the cases, but I will not show graphic details of the crime. My focus is on the psychological research on what makes a person commit a specific crime.
