This class has 5 tests and I believe 5 group projects. He allows you to pick your groups so choose wisely. The tests are pretty simple if you look at the study guide and take notes. He goes right in order of the study guide.

I absolutely loved this class! He gave great examples and helped you understand anything you needed! Intro to Gen Psych was anything but boring and I would definitely take it again if I could!

Comment:

Cannot stay on topic. Frequently goes off on completely unrelated tangents however students are responsible for any material we are supposed to cover. Had a test scheduled day before spring break, review project due class before. Due to snow days he postponed project designed to review for test to after spring break, BUT KEPT THE TEST THE SAME DAY!

Comment:

not too difficult,he gives clear study guides,I liked him personaly,biggest problem is too much group work(your team members grade you)It's NOTHING but a popularity contest,if your group is your friends you get the max if they hate ya you fail regardless of everything,that and in group projects ONE person does EVERYTHING themselves

LOVE him he is my Advisor and i couldn't ask for a better one. He teaches you what you need to know. His exams are easy as long as you study what is on his study guide you will be fine. Take him for any class that he teaches

He's a nice guy, but his sense of humor is a bit off-beat. It's pretty much impossible to fail general psych with him, just take notes and read the textbook.

Comment:

Horrible! His personality is awful, unless you love brass band. A lot of busy work. He does let you revise papers, but the class itself is awful and not interesting. I would never want to take another of his classes again. He's good to people that are in the band, but does not really warm up to people that aren't.

His class was the most boring useless class i have ever taken, and his teaching is horrible, if you want to know about his life history, including family, and obsession with band then this is the class for you

Comment:

Dr. Loher is very unclear in his teaching - he kind of goes off topic a lot. He is in a band and you hear about that most of the time.. He is very smart and knows a lot of about the subject, but doesn't know how to teach it at our level.

Comment:

He is a nice teacher. You will definately like him if your in the band or play a brass instrument (that is all he talks about... compares everything to playing or his daughters) His tests are pretty descent...if you study and read the chapters. He explains things well in class.

lots of work to do,but it's all easy stuff and he let's u revise assignments if you do bad on them to get full credit back. He has a cool sense of humor, you just need to understand it.
