Positive Psychology at Claremont Graduate University. Positive Psychology emerged at the beginning of the new millennium as a movement within psychology aimed at enhancing human strengths such as creativity, joy, flow, responsibility, and optimal performance and achievement.

The Sudbury Valley model of education is not a variation of standard education. It is not a progressive version of traditional schooling.
