Happy New Year!

Hello OCSI Students! I am looking forward to seeing you in J-Term next week. I hope that your J-Term reading is going well.

For those of you who are taking Psychology this semester, here is some information on the class that you mmight want to know about:

J-Term: Psychology Class

Hour: Periods 1-4, 8:30am-12:05 pm

Course description: As stated on the OCSI Course Catalog, “Psychology is an introductory course that will introduce students to the study of psychology, its methods, theory and research, and history. The course will explore psychological facts, principles, and phenomena associated with some of the major subfields of psychology, such as theory and history, research methods, sensation and perception, states of consciousness, motivation and emotion, development, stress, and abnormal behavior. All of these will be examined from a Christian perspective.”

You will need the following materials for this class:
-- A4 or B5 Loose leaf paper for all assignments, except for journal.
