Subject in Focus - Psychology and Sociology
So far this term, Psychology and Sociology students have been diving into the fascinating world of human behaviour and mental processes. We started with an introduction about what Psychology is all about and what areas of specialisations exist within both Psychology and Sociology. Students are about to begin planning, researching and creating a podcast acting as experts in one of these chosen fields.
The next unit, will see students analysing various types of research methods used in Psychology, such as experiments, case studies, and surveys, and learning how these methods contribute to understanding the complexities of the human mind.
Additionally, we will delve into topics like brain function, mental health, memory, perception, and learning and conduct interactive activities that demonstrate how these psychological processes work in real-world scenarios.
We are looking forward to a great year, of sparking curiosity, and inspiring deeper thought about the mind and human behaviour!
