Professor: Jeffrey Allen Saunders


Course Description
Course materials are interesting, but I personally found it a bit hard to understand. The test and assignments were frustrating for me because of that. I do know people who found this course good grade as long as they revised well. Unfortunately, this wasn't the case for me, since I had difficulty revising the material.
Assessment
a weekly online quiz (can do multiple times); mini quiz/test during tutorials; ~1200 word essay, exam

Course Description
It's about explaining why and how people think wrongly (irrationally). For example, why goalkeeper will go to either left or right instead of staying at the middle, even if all positions share similar probability of catching the ball. The content is quite interesting and there're some interactive activities in class, but it is quite chur because there is exam. The class is big (288 students!), so if you can't reg any other better CCST and are not afraid of chur, take this course. Friendly to non-psycho or non-econ (as there're some econ terms involved) students.
Assessment
Tutorials with mini-tests ; online tests every week; about 1200 words essay regarding a psychological topic with readings given;mid-term test ;exam. The course is really filled with tests and exams...
