Lesson 5

This lesson examines Carl Rogers' humanistic approach to personality. Students will analyze quotes from Rogers to understand his view that personality arises from within the individual rather than being imposed from outside. They will consider whether they agree with Rogers' theory that the most effective therapy provides a supportive relationship for personal growth rather than aiming to cure or change the person. Students will discuss their analysis of quotes and write an assessment of whether they support or disagree with Rogers' perspective, supported by evidence. The lesson aims to teach students about Rogers' influential ideas and develop their ability to evaluate psychological theories.
