Campers will be applying personality theories to find their strengths and weaknesses to assist in future career choices and relationships (as well as how it can help to understand others). We will be using stories, discussions and “what if” scenarios to apply social psychology to present-day experiences. At the end of each day students will choose one psychological component they learned and create an “adventure” that their children’s book character applies in their story. By the end of the week, students will have a children’s book illustrating some of the psychological principles that they have learned and can now teach to others in a fun and engaging way.
