Health & Medical Question

Think about all the topics we have learned about this semester. I am sure there were many you had heard about in other classes. I guess there were others you did not know or did not know as much about.

I want you to pick one topic that you either did not know before this class, or did not know as much about, or that you changed your mind about.

Please write a (minimum) two-page essay about that topic. Focus on how you found it, whether you had ever thought about this topic before and how your views have changed. Connect it to at least one scientific paper, magazine article or youtube clip that you have found while thinking about this topic. In your essay also write about how this topic relates to your future profession – as a teacher, as a nurse, as a clinician…? Or just as a parent, grandparent, godparent, or aunt/uncle? The topic I chose is behaviorism.
