Dual Credit courses are designed for advanced high school students who are reading on the college level. Student maturity and ability to communicate with the instructor are also important
considerations. Parents will not be permitted to contact the instructor regarding concerns and
will need to coach their child on how to communicate and navigate any issues that arise. Intro to
Psych is the scientific study of behavior and mental processes. Students will learn about
fundamental theories, problems, and procedures relating to human activity, as well as biological,
social, and cultural factors in development. Topics include: *neuroscience *development *gender

a Christian philosophy of psychology unit demonstrating how the word of God speaks to the
major issues in psychology. While all Arrow courses are taught from a Christian worldview,
students will be exposed to secular and humanistic thought in this course. Students will be
expected to actively participate in class discussions, projects, papers, and presentations.
