Community engagement | Psychology homework help

Community Engagement – This course includes an active component of experiencing the application of psychology in our community.  Student will select 1 activity off of a list of options in which to participate and     write a 1 page reflective essay on the experience. Due to the Covid-19 health emergency most of the engagement activities have been canceled. All options this term are virtual.

As an alternative to actively engaging in the community, this term you can choose from a list of campus presentations that are related to the application of psychology and write a one page reflection.  Please answer the following questions in your reflection:

1) How was the activity related to psychology?  This answer may not be readily apparent in every event.  Dig into your knowledge of psychology to connect the event to topics or theories in psychology.

2) How can the information you gained from the event be useful in supporting communities?  What types of communities are in need of this support and in what way can it make a difference in the lives of people in the community?

3) How is the sub-topic of psychology related to the event similar or different from the area of psychology you wish to study?
