Purpose:
The AP Psychology course is designed to introduce
students to the systematic and scientific study of the behavior
and mental processes of human beings. The course is intended to
prepare the student for the AP Psychology Exam in May in which
college credit may be earned based on exam performance. The course
will require a significant amount of time outside of class for
students to be successful. However, my hope is that
the course will be rewarding and enjoyable for students.
