Skip to 0 minutes and 12 seconds MUNDY PHD: How do we learn and remember, and what factors can influence our learning? What role does reward and punishment play in shaping our behaviour? Hi. I’m Matthew Mundy, I’m the Director of Education for the School of Psychological Sciences at Monash University in Australia. In this course, you’ll explore the psychology of learning. You’ll find out about the influence of behaviourism and biological factors within the study of learning. You’ll also investigate the basic principles of classical and operant conditioning, and because psychology doesn’t operate within a vacuum, you’ll have the chance to apply what you know to a real world situation. This introductory course is designed for everyone, regardless of experience or background.

No prior study of psychology is required or expected. The great thing about this course is that it’s part of a set of courses that creative a for credit pathway into Monash University’s fully online Graduate Diploma of Psychology. That means learners who successfully complete the full set of courses and who are accepted into the Graduate Diploma will receive one unit of academic credit.
