PSYC3501 Cognitive Psychology
Students analyze psychological theories, concepts of learning, and cognition as well as how they apply to education and lifelong learning. Students apply these theories and concepts, along with research findings, to learning in general and to educational practices. Students also apply this knowledge to gain insight into their own learning processes through discovery of ideas such as metacognition, optimal challenge and performance, critical thinking, self-directed learning, and the relationship between procrastination and motivation.
