"The AP Psychology course is intended to provide the scope and level of academic accomplishment expected in a college introductory course. In addition, the course aims to instill knowledge, skills, and attitudes to apply to our own lives. 

Please understand from the onset a fact of paramount importance: the least important person in this classroom is me- the teacher. Acting as a “college student” you are expected to charge ahead on your own, to seek, find and internalize knowledge on your own. In short, you must be the main agent in your educational process.

As the teacher, it is my job to facilitate your drive and accomplishment by structuring your learning situations and selecting learning tools to help you attain your goals: a successful score on the AP exam, an enrichment of your life through the acquisition of psychological knowledge and the enjoyment of the course."

There are no prerequisites for this class.
