Think back to the Week 1 Discussion about majoring in psychology. Why did you choose to major in
psychology? What are your goals a�er you graduate? Perhaps you want to help children with
intellectual and developmental disabili�es improve their func�oning at home or school. Or perhaps
you want to go to graduate school to become qualified to provide therapy to survivors of sexual
violence. Understanding your “why,” or your future goals can help focus your efforts now as you
progress through the program and iden�fy steps to effect real change in your community. For
example, if your goal is to help children with intellectual and developmental disabili�es, you could
look for opportuni�es to integrate research about intellectual and developmental disabili�es into
classroom discussions and assignments that pertain to child development. You could also volunteer at
an organiza�on, like Au�sm Speaks, to advocate on behalf of children with au�sm in your community.

In this Discussion, you will use Kaltura to record a brief video or narrated PowerPoint (PPT)
presenta�on on your “why” or future goals. You will address how pursuing a degree in psychology
aligns with your “why” and what you can do to bring about posi�ve social change during the program
and a�er you graduate. For guidance on pos�ng a video into the Discussion Forum, refer to the
Kaltura sec�on of the Classroom Support Center (accessed via the Help bu�on (the i icon) on the le�-
hand global naviga�on menu.
