How: Pedagogical intervention

• Incorporating ideas from PAR and activism in community psychology #ICRMC

Module is from 2019/2020 University of Portsmouth. combined honours with psychology. Priorities - criticality + employability. Due to ie being combined there was some freedom away from professional body requirements - Employability Transferable skills was the selected module. #ICRMC

Using creative research methods in a psychology undergraduate course - it starts with an introduction to psychology - WEIRD subject are at the core > western, educated, industrialised, rich, democratic…that’s the key issues what about non-WEIRD perspectives #ICRMC

Jacqueline is starting with a reflection and mention of @thesiswhisperer.bsky.social that a keynote should entertain - Jacqueline is hoping to take us on a journey across What, Why, How and So what? #ICRMC
