A 12-lesson intensive course on reasoning and critical thinking, aligned with the 'Reasoning Skills Success' framework. This sequence covers everything from the distinction between reason and emotion to complex logical fallacies, statistical analysis, and deductive/inductive logic.
A foundational university-level psychology curriculum covering biological bases, cognitive processes, behavioral theories, and social dynamics. This sequence provides a rigorous introduction to the scientific study of the human mind and behavior.
This workshop-style sequence explores the psychological principles of observational learning, focusing on Albert Bandura's concepts of self-efficacy and the four stages of modeling. Students transition from theoretical understanding to practical application by designing and testing instructional tutorials that optimize skill acquisition for their peers.
An interdisciplinary graduate sequence exploring the intersection of cognitive psychology and rhetorical questioning. Students analyze biases like anchoring and priming to master the art of persuasive cross-examination.
A specialized sequence for undergraduate linguistics or SLP students examining the articulatory and acoustic constraints on phoneme manipulation. Students move from theoretical phonetics to professional diagnostic reasoning.
A game-based geography sequence for 3rd graders to master US state capitals through mnemonics, active play, and competitive challenges. Students move from initial recognition to rapid recall using varied instructional strategies.
This graduate-level sequence bridges the gap between traditional logic and cognitive psychology. Students explore the evolutionary and psychological underpinnings of logical fallacies, focusing on heuristics, motivated reasoning, and social conformity to develop advanced metacognitive strategies for professional argumentation.
A comprehensive look at why we remember and why we forget, covering the stages of memory, types of interference, and strategies for improving recall.
