So much work for one class, very disorganized and the grading scale is out of 100 the entire class, so every point you lose in any assignment or quiz, is a percent of your final grade.

This course is a survey of cognitive psychology, the scientific study of the human mind and human thinking. During the semester we will discuss many different aspects of cognition: perception, attention, memory, language, concepts, reasoning, problem solving, expertise, creativity, and decision making. The emphasis will be on how psychologists have used experiments to help construct theories of how the human mind works and how human thinking occurs.
