Principales reseñas sobre POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGY: CHARACTER, GRIT AND RESEARCH METHODS
i am so happy that i graduated. The course has helped me understand more. Now when i learn this course in class i can easily see that i am ahead of others in understanding it
I am honoured to be taught by Prof Duckworth and Dr Robertson-Kraft. I have been extremely interested in the concept of GRIT and SELF - CONTROL; this course has been extremely helpful.
I thought one of the ideas behind this course in helping people find an easy way to read research articles and not be intimidated by the process was great!
Though i have nightmares of research design from my undergraduate career, this puts a neat spin on it and reminds the sheer importance of it. Thanks for the reminder of what is important UPENN!
