Applying Psychological Concepts To Your Life
Content:
For this closing assignment, look over the list with all the topics that we have covered throughout the course of the semester and reflect on the following:
- Please discuss five specific ways that the content from this course can apply to your life.
- For each of the five examples, please choose one term/concept listed on the “Closing Assignment:Applying Psychological Concepts to Your Life (Concept List)”. After listing the concept, also include:
- Source: Where you found the term/concept (acceptable sources are the lectures and your textbook).
- Definition: this needs to be from lecture or from your textbook – if you cannot find a definition, pick a different term/concept.
- Application: Explain how the term/concept makes sense of something that happened in the past or how the term/concept can help guide you in a real life situation in the future. Make sure the application is as specific and concise as possible.
Formatting:
- Be sure to number your examples 1 through 5 (rather than writing this out as an essay, think of it as five separate paragraphs each numbered for ease of identification).
- Write as clearly as possible (i.e. complete sentences, proper grammar, etc.).
- Your paper should be roughly 2 typed pages (standard font and margins).
Submissions: Your paper will be submitted electronically through the “Closing Assignment” link which can be found in the “Course Documents and Videos” link on our Canvas class website.
- Please attach your document as a separate file rather than copying and pasting it which will alter your formatting.
