This course does incorporate the use of videos. While I don't anticipate any content issues with the videos, parents should be aware of one. A video shown in week 2 of this course briefly mentions a human sexuality researcher who published 2 books. The video does not go into any detail about the studies nor the books, just briefly mentions them. I simply like for parents to be aware of this. The comment occurs around the 4 minute, 21 second mark and the video can be previewed on the following link: https://youtu.be/hFV71QPvX2I 

In addition, during week 4 while discussing forensics serial killers are mentioned. I do not show any gory crime scene photos nor go into graphic detail of the crimes. However, I do mention several serial killer cases and discuss how forensic psychologists were involved in helping to solve the open cases. Parents are always welcome to review the slide handouts prior to class as they will be posted in the classroom.
