This course will explore keystone principle in Educational Psychology from the perspective of a first-year college student. Students will investigate questions such as "How do I remember things?" "How do I forget things?" and "How do I get overwhelmed?". In addition, strategies relevant to specific student contexts around "Learning" will be examined and implemented. Students will be evaluated by their participation in group activities, cooperation and implementation of learning strategies, as well as self-reflection.
First-year (R1ST)
