    Course Description: PSY 201 is a general introduction to psychological science. In line with SU
    psychology faculty’s main research expertise, the course provides an overview of social psychology,
    developmental psychology, cognitive psychology, and neuroscience. After completing this course, you
    will gain an understanding of basic concepts and theories in psychological science, methodologies used
    to test the theories, and major findings emerging from the tests. In sum, PSY 201 will introduce you to a
    scientific way of examining and understanding why people feel, think, and behave the way they do
    across contexts and time.

    Lectures: Each week, a different faculty will deliver a lecture on a topic of their expertise. Thus, you
    will not only learn each topic from the best possible expert at SU but also get to know and interact with
    all SU psychology program faculty throughout the semester. The faculty will be lecturing on
    Wednesdays 14:40 to 17:30 at FENS G077. Live broadcast can be accessed via
    https://sabanciuniv.zoom.us/j/94961976133?pwd=K3ZUVDNjNHdqOWR2R1N3SCtUbzFJQT09 The
    faculty may utilize the third hour of the week for different activities. Some may deliver additional
    lectures whereas others may hold in-class demonstrations, discussions, or Top Hat Q & A games (see
    below). Please check the tentative course outline for the weekly plan.

    Important note: Please note that video recordings will be made available upon request to only students
    who reside in the region affected by the earthquake to compensate missed lectures due to connectivity
    problems. The list of these students will be provided to the faculty by the FASS Dean’s office. Video
    recordings will not be made available to any other student under any circumstances, including having a
    health report. (Due to the class size, keeping up with health reports is not feasible for the teaching
    team.)

    Top Hat games: To review lecture material while having some fun you will play Q & A games using
    Top Hat in some of the weeks (see the schedule for dates). You will earn points by just taking part in the
    game, but we will also maintain a leaderboard with the top performers earning bonus points at the end
    of the semester. Please sign up for Top Hat at https://tophat.com/. You can use the program for free as
    long as you sign up with your Sabancı University email address. Please make sure that you have access
    to the program (through either your computer or phone) during the lectures.
