SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY

사회를 이해하기 위해서는 사회를 구성하고 있는 개인을 알아야 하지만, 또한 사회적 존재인 인간을 올바로 파악하기 위해서는 사회에 관한 충분한 이해가 병행되어야 한다. 본 강의는 개인과 사회의 문제를 심리학적 관점을 접합시켜 이해할 수 있는 능력을 함양하여 사회문제에 대한 시각을 넓히는 데 그 목적이 있다.

1- understand how social situations influence our behavior 2- understand why we need others 3- understand why we help others 4- understand why we harm others

Students are expected to pay close attention to what is going on in the class, stay fully engaged, and actively participate in group and class discussions. You will lose class participation points for distraction and disengagement during the class. Half of the class time is spent on group activities, you will talk/discuss/debate in your team. If you are not interested in class activities and discussion, this is not a good class for you. There will be two exams, one at midterm and a second exam during finals week. Each exam covers half of the course, and is entirely in English. The exam will include multiple-choice questions. There will be a few assignments, which will be posted in the CTL, during the first week of the semester. All important announcements and deadlines will be posted on the CTL. It is the students' responsibility to frequently check the CTL website. However, do not use the CTL to communicate with me. Use my email address instead.

English language: If you are not a perfect English speaker, but your reading comprehension and listening are reasonably good, you may still be able to get a good grade in this class. However, if you cannot understand the lectures, you will be in trouble, or possibly fail.
