PSYC 214 - Psychology of Activisim

4 Credits

1 Units

In this class we will examine how social change occurs and investigate what roles we can play to create effective change. We will examine what it means to be an activist and what motivates some people to take action in order to address social problems. At the same time, we will consider what factors prevent other citizens from becoming involved in activist projects in their communities, even when they benefit from them. We will learn from the stories of activists in our community as students work to develop their own individual activism project.
