AP® Psychology

Girls-Only & ​All-Gender Course; Prerequisite - Completion of eighth grade; Full-year course

COURSE DESCRIPTION
AP® Psychology introduces students to the systematic and scientific study of human behavior and mental processes. Students learn the psychological facts, principles, and phenomena contained within the major branches of psychology. The first semester focuses on the fundamental sub-fields of neurobiology, behavior, development, sensation, perception, and cognition. This provides a solid footing from which to investigate the topics of learning, social, and abnormal psychology in the latter half of the year. Interwoven throughout our study are numerous opportunities to cultivate research and critical thinking skills. Presented with experiential psychological field work, students are challenged to apply different research methods, collaborate with others, collect and analyze data, and arrive at conclusions. The course is designed to prepare students for the AP® Psychology Exam in May.

WHAT STUDENTS SAY

“This course has been incredible. It inspired me to minor in psychology in college, and has helped me to see so many connections to real-world ideas and concepts. The course is so organized, and my teacher is so flexible with time management, as my schedule has been very crazy this year. If I could do high school all over again, I would most definitely take more courses with One Schoolhouse!”

"My teacher, Mrs.Adams is a very good teacher and genuinely cares about my learning. I proactively reach her out on topics I don't fully understand and she responds and clarifies everything very well." 

WHAT STUDENTS DO
Learning is an active process at One Schoolhouse. Students design, create and apply. And, they engage with classmates and connect with their teachers through discussions, video conferences, and projects. Specifically, in this class students will:
  • Set goals that drive their learning. Students reflect regularly on their growth, and meet on video chat with their online teacher to review progress towards their goals.
  • Have choice in how they learn new content and practice new skills. Students are given agency to determine the best ways for them to learn.
  • Apply what they are learning to the real world. Learning is meaningful and connects to concepts outside the classroom.
  • Practice constructive engagement in a diverse and changing world. Students interact with classmates from across the country and around the world.
  • Gain academic maturity. Online learning takes greater discipline and independence than a traditional face-to-face classroom. Teachers support students to build this skill.
