Course Description

Are time and space substances, or is there nothing more to them than the relations between objects or events? How is time different from space? Does time have a direction? If it does, what gives it its direction? If it doesn't, why does it seem to us that it does? Does space have a direction? This course investigates the nature of time and space and objects (including persons) within space and time.

Course Description
This course studies three of the core topics of psychology: perception, cognition, and intelligence. The perception component covers how our sensory systems influence our ability to act in the world and the conditions and consequences of perceptual errors. The cognition component focuses on the theoretical and methodological issues that arise in how we attend to, remember, think, problem solve, and make decisions, and considers the consequences of how biases and heuristics influence our choices. The intelligence component explores the historical evolution of the concept of intelligence, issues in its measurement, the relationship to concepts of creativity, emotional intelligence, and the influence of the environment. The course includes inquiry-led tutorials that reinforce and expand on concepts, and develop broad thinking skills to relate evidence to rational arguments and choices that can be applied to any problem solving domain.
