PSYCHOLOGY
Over the next two days, you will be watching several Crash Course
videos related to disorders and answering a series of questions about
them. Because much of the disorders information in your book is
outdated, these videos - not your book - will serve as your primary
resource for basic information about the disorders. Therefore, it’s
imperative that you watch these and answer all the questions.
Don’t split up the work with someone.
Don’t copy the answers.
Just watch them.
All of them.
You can watch in small groups or alone.
