Websites

This web address takes you to what is called Psych Portal and it contains a rich set of supplementary materials for the text book including quizzes, animated simulations, and videos. An access code for Psych Portal comes with the purchase of a new textbook.

Required PsychSim quizzes and the optional module quizzes will be taken in our Blackboard classroom, which can be found by logging into Blackboard and then selecting our class.
This is a simple web site that I created for the course. It contains a link to the on-line student learning center as well as other relevant course information, such as exam and homework scores and course grades.

Course Description
From the course catalog: Introduction to the scientific study and understanding human behavior in a variety of settings. Physical and biological, as well as social perspectives will be presented.
From me: This course is designed to provide an overview of the major theories, research strategies, and applications within the field of psychology. The lectures will largely correspond to the readings in the textbook, but I shall try to present additional material designed to deepen your understanding and appreciation of the psychological perspectives covered in the book.
