social psychology

    Please reflect/react to the possible topics listed below
    This is a chance for you to use the critical skills we will be developing throughout the course in sharing your perspective and thoughts on content we learn.
    DO NOT summarize or define or explain any concepts or topics to me. I want to hear about your THOUGHTS, your critiques, your feelings, your experiences, and how you react to the topic. It can be personal too! So ultimately its like a reflection/reaction paper.
o    I will take off points for any part of the paper in which you begin describing, defining, or explaining topics.
o    I already know the topics
o    I want to hear what you think about them! How it relates to you personally life or events that relate to the topic (explain how it relates)
