Overview
The Cognitive Psychology and Neuropsychology course from the University of Cambridge will also provide insights into the core research methods used to study the mind, brain, and behaviour (from behavioural experiments, to the study of patients with brain damage and the use of neuroimaging techniques).
In doing so, participants will learn about the main methods and materials used to explore human feelings, sensations and thinking, as well as the way humans learn and interact with their own selves and others.
This course will give students an understanding of the historical development of modern psychology, a familiarity with what we now know about our own mind-body system through an exciting journey inside our mind and how it evolves throughout our lives with the help of brain plasticity.
By studying this week, the students should have:
- become familiar with navigating around the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) and from VLE to links and back
- test your ability to access files and the web conferencing software and sort out any problems with the help of the Technology Enhanced Learning team
- learn how to look for, assess and reference internet resources
- contribute to a discussion forum to introduce yourself to other students and discuss why you are interested in the course and what you hope to get out of your studies
