Comment:

Had this prof several times in undergrad and would sign up for his class even if I didn't need it. Very interesting, responds to all questions-if he doesn't know the answer he will get back to you. VERY fair, goes over tests to make sure there were no errors or unfair questions. Doesn't require you to purchase the book. Great sense of humor.

Exams are easy - only take 20-30 minutes. Book not even required. He tells you everything you'll need to know in class.

I LOVE THIS CLASS!!! It's definitely my favorite this quarter...Fournier is so funny and he knows the material really well. He knows how to relate to college age students. He always lets us out early, which kind of bums me out since I love his class so much. The tests are easy, the lectures are informative and entertaining, the prof is great!!

Comment:

Jody was an outstanding professor! Easily the best professor I had my first quarter at OSU. The course was not difficult because there were only three tests and a paper alongside the REP program, and Jody is such an excellent professor that learning in his class 'comes naturally' if you attend. Work your schedule around Jody, he's worth it!

Best professor I've had so far in college. Extremely energetic, funny, and knowledgeable. Exams are always fair, and he never misguides you on what will be on it. No need to buy a textbook as long as you go to class and take notes. Overall, I LOVED this class and Jody!

Definately recommend this class. Buying the textbook would be a waste of money cause it's never used/needed. The tests are easy as long as you put the time in and study for them. Very straightforward class.

Absolutely AMAZING! I wish he tought other classes than just H100 because I would sign up in a heart bean. He cares about what he teaches and the students that he is teaching to. The book is not needed but go to lecture because he tells you a lot of information. His lectures are VERY entertaining.

Jody is the definition of cool. The class was scheduled to be an an hour 48 minutes, but it averaged about an hour each time. No textbook required and no final. Grade consists of 3 midterms and 1 psychology experiment study which were all 25%. Before each midterm Jody would tell us exactly what we needed to know. Funny, smart, imaginative.

Loved his class. Even though it was at 8 in the morning, I went every time because he's an entertaining professor. Grade was based on 3 midterms, which were pretty easy. If you go to lecture, it's not hard to get an A. Plus, there was no textbook, which saved time and money. Overall, great professor!

The first day set the stage. We went to the library to view a giant sloth and he took a picture with me in front of it! He let us out of class early and told us the book would not be needed. He reviews with us for the midterms and is just a friendly guy. He makes learning fun because of all of his stories.

Everybody's said it already - hilarious, easygoing, helpful, intelligent, and opinionated - jump at the chance to take this class. I waited to take 550 until I could take it with him, and boy was it worth the wait. He's a teaching god.

Funniest professor I have ever had! Makes class easy not because the material actually is, but because he's very clear and has an awesome teaching style. If you have the opportunity, take him!
