Social Psychology Friends and Colleagues,
Hoping this finds you well! We have been working with Dr. Phil Zimbardo on an online application of his Heroic Imagination Project (almost a greatest hits of social psychology — perfect for general or relevant topic courses) that uses social capital to facilitate instruction. The course has been used as both homework and as a professor-less course.
Here is a summary of the effort:

Psychometric data collection is part of the engaging class which uses peer-to-peer, structured experiential and psycho-educational approaches to drive engagement in participants. See the article for outcomes (spoiler alert: significantly lower levels of stress, anxiety, depression, and surprisingly, SDO; higher levels of courage). The data can be used for your own research and accreditation, among others. 94% of 1000's of participants would recommend the package to friends. When did you ever recommend homework to a friend?
I would be happy to share more with you — please do drop me a line!
Have a great weekend!
Dan
