| Overall Educational Objective |
This course aims to introduce students to the scientific study of human memory with a focus on its operation in the social context. |
| Course Description |
This course introduces the study of memory in the social context with a psychological methodology. Students will first learn about the basics of human memory, i.e., its subsystems, its mechanisms, its neuroscientific basis etc. Later, the focus of the course will shift to the social influences on memory. There will be two main lines of research that the course will cover: 1. How remembering within groups that are as small as couples and as big as societies affect human memory, 2. How individuals remember the past of their groups. The main concepts, studies, and findings in these two lines of research will be reviewed. Students will not only learn about remembering the past but also imagining the future for both individuals and collectives, which is an integral aspect of the memory system. |
