This class turned out to be one of my favorites I've taken so far. Even though I'm definitely not a psychology person, I was fascinated by all of the information I learned about our interpersonal relations. The stuff that interested me the most was the stuff on attachment, sex and support. I really liked finding out all of the benefits of sex because my sex education was definitely less than stellar and mostly based on scaring us off. Lots of the other stuff was very interesting and surprising a lot of the time. Some of the stuff on how to give good support was new to me and has actually come in handy to know.
If I could change one thing about this class I would set up the discussions a little differently. The blog posts were a good setup but I think it would have been helpful to have some more readings before discussion just so I would have more knowledge on the topic. I just found it difficult to make an observation or theory when I was very uninformed about the topic. Overall, a very good class though with good teachers :)
