Welcome!

Welcome to the Blog for Behavior & Environment! We are a class of graduate and undergraduate students at the University of Michigan who are studying human behavior and the ways that we interact with our natural and built environments. The goal of the class is to better understand how the human mind works so that we can help each other thrive and become stewards of our environments.

The purpose of our Blog is to provide our students an arena in which to explore how what we learn in class connects with each of our students' personal experiences and areas of interest.

This Blog will be populated with weekly posts on topics from Environmental Psychology - including attention, perception, knowing, and rationality - and the natural and built environments that help us become more effective, restore our attention, and cope with different kinds of environmental stress.
