• What's Going On in Psychology?

  • The psychology classes had an activity related to problem-solving skills where they had to solve various problems... sudoku problems! They learned about trial and error and applied it to the activity. As you can see, they were very focused on trying to solve the problems. At one point, there was so much silence. 🤫 
  • We created Stress Management Programmes (British version) and presented them simultaneously, I call it rotating presentations. This is based on the Holzel Study, mindfulness meditation techniques that increase grey matter in specific regions of the brain. Yesterday they learned a few different techniques, including yoga. Today they had to develop an 8-week plan implementing the different techniques and discuss their effectiveness. At the end of the presentations the students had to choose which plan was most effective and why.
