My favorite course: Educational Psychology

My favorite course at Lafayette so far is Educational Psychology with Professor [Lauren] Myers. Not only does the course cover major educational theories and concepts and help you understand how we learn, but it also sheds a light on the current educational debates and concerns. Also, Professor Myers goes above and beyond the conventional pedagogical approaches and includes all sorts of educational resources in the curriculum. She gives her students enough freedom to define their own goals for the course while making sure everyone gets the most out of it. I enjoyed every bit of the EdPsych course. As a whole, it gave me a whole new perspective to look at education and learning. —Oyuntugs Gantumur ’23
