Welcome to the Wize Psychology Course!
My name is Janel and I will be your instructor for this Wize Psychology course 😀 

This course is in beta, meaning that some of the content is still under construction. Also, we need your help to make this course even better! If you notice any missing topics or any topic that should be removed from the course because it's irrelevant to Psych 1XX3, please let me know so I can get right on that. You can click on the speech bubble in the bottom right corner to let me know.

In most schools, a Psychology 1 course typically covers chapters 1-11 of this course and a Psychology 2 course typically covers chapters 12-20 of this course. The order your instructor chooses to cover these chapters might be different than how they are laid out in this course, feel free to use this course in the order that matches with your course syllabus.

I've created short video explanations walking you through each of the key psychology concepts. I'll continue to add more practice questions to this course as we go, so make sure to check back in once in a while for more practice opportunity.

If you have any questions, please use the Ask a Question box to reach me.

Let's start studying! 🚀
