Social Psychology

Reflection

Assignment 1

The first assignment required me to relate all the Social Psychology theories and concepts that I've learned so far to my own personal experiences. From this, I can understand better when I apply the theories and concepts with something that I encounter in my daily life. By being able to apply things in my life, it is easier for me to remember and understand the concepts I learned. 

This assignment has also prompted me to observe my surroundings more carefully especially on how I behave and act around other people in a public setting and vice versa. Through this assignment too, I has learned how to explain behaviours and attitudes that were expressed through the theories and concepts provided in the Social Psychology module.

Assignment 2

In the second assignment, my group and I were required to find articles from newspapers or magazines that we can apply the concepts the we learnt from Chapter 6 onwards. Our group consisted of four people, including myself, and each and one of us had to find two articles from a chapter that was assigned to us. We were to compile everything and two different members will present each article. The reason why we chose to do so was because we wanted to show how we understood each other's articles, even if we weren't the ones who found them.

From this, I learned that with the cooperation of my group members, I was able to understand some parts of the chapters that I found difficult to comprehend. I was also able to realize that almost everything that had happened, can be related back to Social Psychology.
