Students in PHIL 100 (Danielson & Ball) or PSYC 100 (Clifford) are invited to participate in College of San Mateo’s largest learning community: Philosophy and Psychology in Contemporary Films.
Dr. Clifford, Dr. Danielson, and Dr. Ball host a series of films and subsequent discussions examining various issues addressed in recent popular films.
Students who are enrolled in either PHIL 100 or PSYC 100 will receive extra credit for attending these showings and participating in the subsequent discussions. Our goal is to consider aspects of these films relative to theories talked about in our classes from an interdisciplinary prospective. We would like to facilitate students’ learning to connect and apply what they learn in their courses to their daily lives.
Link to Current Movie Schedule
Most movies will be shown on a Friday at 6:30 pm in the CSM Theater in building 3. This is a full-sized theater with digital picture and surround sound. Movies are free and you are welcome to bring guests. We ask that you do not bring food or drink of any sort and that you remember that this is a college activity and to conduct yourself appropriately. To receive credit for your class, please remain after the movie for the discussion. There will likely be given a small assignment. Your individual instructor will explain the amount of credit you can earn.
