Memorable Psych elective with a non-heavy workload

positive

Hi bumper! Since I already took her class, let me now answer you lol ⚠️ Disclaimer (so I'm not accused of being a false review if things are different now 💔): This is based on MY experience during that year and during the newness of the course. Experience may be different and changes can happen as the years go by, as per all reviews within this group. Take this review with a grain of skepticism. If you want a non-heavy workload but still want a memorable Psych elective that leaves you with added knowledge about Gender/Sexuality, I recommend taking this course. For context, I am not a Psych student. So I do not know much beyond mental health, so this was a welcome surprise on learning how identity integrates on the psychology of society and the self. I am also queer, and I enlisted with the expectation of the class already discussing what I already know, talking about sexuality and gender labels. So I'm glad that the course didn't go to that route, but instead discussed theories that solidified my understanding of labels, the intersectionality of identities, why I myself position myself with it, and what are the things that I need to reposition myself in. I learned so much from my classmates' experiences, the case studies we discussed, as well as Ma'am's personal experiences. As in grabe iyak ko 'nun just listening and adding myself unto heavy convos and realizations. Super iyakin ko pa, so malala ang group discussions, parang nag-group therapy kalang HAHAHAH BUT it's a needed convo, and it takes a lot of vulnerability to open up. So I hope this class becomes your space to feel what needs to be felt, and safe to feel those realizations.:) You definitely would have a unique experience and stories to listen in this class. Very A-able, basta just normally pass things on time, engage in participation, and you answer with your truth. Course materials are there to guide you with terms, but overall it's your story that would let ma'am know that you understood the purpose of the course. I hope you'll enjoy the class!more
