Sigmund Freud

You are responsible for learning about AT LEAST two of Sigmund Freud’s theories. You need to start by watching the link I provide and then spring boarding off to other materials to help you in understanding the theory. Then start (or continue) a discussion about the theory. The theory needs to be explained in your own words and then discussed. Remember to NEVER repeat the ideas of others and build off of each other’s comments. Let your intellectual curiosity lead the discussion and also bring in other links and websites that could enhance our knowledge of the theory. You need to post AT LEAST 3 times.
