| PSY 212 OLA | Positive Psychology | 3 | - | 2019-01-22 - 2019-05-11 | Martin, Rebecca | 24 | 21 | For over 100 years psychology has been helping people with personal problems as they deal with disorder, disease,and distress. Great progress has been accomplished in assisting and alleviating personal discomfort and dysfunction. In recent years, however, we have become aware that the “disease model” is not adequate in enabling individuals to perform at their potential. “Positive Psychology” is also about what is positive, meaningful, and productive in a person’s life. Positive Psychology identifies those characteristics that make life worth living, fulfilling and meaningful. This course enables the student to study and strengthen the positive personal traits and dispositions – like kindness, resiliency, curiosity, values, interests, talents, optimism and hopes, while exploring those social institutions which enable our lives to the fullest such as friendship, marriage, family, education, etc. The premise of this course is that human goodness and excellence are as important as human flaws and inadequacies. Psychology is as much about human potential as it is human pain. Prerequisite(s): PSY101 or permission of instructor. | Online | OPEN | Link | ||
