Introduction to TSC 6500 Ecological Psychology

Audience

Only Students in the TSC Program

Description

This session provides an introduction to TSC 6500 Ecological Psychology. The session is for students registered in the course only, and will review the course goals, structure, content, and assignments. Ecological psychology is a study of the human being as a part of the web of life. This new field is critical of traditional psychology that emphasizes the individual self and its capacities for mastery and control, and which views the environment as distinct from the self. By contrast, ecological psychology views humans as interconnected with the larger systems of nature and subject to its laws, and by virtue of our conscious awareness to be stewards of our shared planet. Ecological psychologists look deeply into human identity and hope that by integrating psychology’s many fields with knowledge of nature and systems, we may improve our skill at raising environmental awareness and translating it into action.
