Supporting Document Component

  • AP Psychology provides an overview of current psychological research methods and theories. Students will explore the therapies used by professional counselors and clinical psychologists and examine the reasons for normal human reactions: how people learn and think, the process of human development and human aggression, altruism, intimacy, and self-reflection. They’ll study core psychological concepts, such as the brain and sense functions, and learn to gauge human reactions, gather information, and form meaningful syntheses. Along the way, students will also investigate relevant concepts like study skills and information retention. The equivalent of a 100-level college survey course, AP Psychology prepares students for the AP Exam and for further studies in psychology and life sciences. The content aligns with the scope and sequence specified by the College Board and with widely used textbooks.
  • No documents to display.
  • If it has been determined by the student's IEP Team or Section 504 Committee that the student qualifies as a student with a disability under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act ("IDEA") or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act ("Section 504"), either an IEP or a Section 504 Plan will be developed for the student. While the School remains the local educational agency ("LEA") and is responsible for providing all direct services, they will upload a copy of the plan and Pearson teachers shall review the IEPs and Section 504 Plans in order to implement the appropriate portions of the document in the online setting.
