ofthevine Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 I am thinking of teaching a course next year at our once-a-week co-op with half a year of psychology and half a year of sociology. Does anyone have any great resources for either class? Anyone have experience with a course? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bright Light Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 (edited) Recently I took a good course on the history of psychology, and in the past I took sociology courses as part of my course load for a teaching cert. and liberal studies degree. I would approach both psychology and sociology from that standpoint, presenting their history and philosophy, as I think it would serve the students well. I can recommend a text for psychology and a movie. What are your goals and purposes in teaching the course?

ofthevine Posted February 23, 2019 Author Share Posted February 23, 2019 Honestly, right now, I'm feeling it out. I am unsure if I could really teach a semester of each and want to talk to the parents to see if they want this to be a course that prepares them for CLEP or AP tests. Two of my favorite high school classes were psychology and sociology. They were so fascinating and quite fun. I would like to show some videos, have discussion, and give them an introduction to each.
