Exploring Paradoxical Lives: Insights into Human Behavior through AP Psychology

This course, based on David Myers' AP Psychology textbook, delves into the complexities of individual human behavior through the study of unique neurological cases. These paradoxical narratives, although they portray individuals with exceptional challenges, reveal profound truths about the human mind. Students will engage with various psychological topics, from abnormal psychology to social influence, and complete a term portfolio that showcases their understanding and insights. The course also includes supplemental readings and review sessions to prepare for the AP Psychology test in May.
