Comment:

I love Dr. Beard! He's really funny and energetic which makes the class entertaining. He also provides examples and stories about clients (confidentially obviously) which is really cool. He lets you know up front what he expects and has good, detailed notes for his lectures. I really liked him, and would recommend him.

Great Online Class for someone who needs a few extra credits. There is a good amount of assigned readings but if you don't put it off til the last minute you'll be fine. HINT: READ THE LECTURE NOTES ONLINE... he likes those on the tests!!!! Only 2 somewhat "big" assignments but they can be done in a day of work.

I took psy 408 online as one of my first classes back to school after 25 years! Dr. Beard makes it very clear what he expects. Three tests, one paper, 2 - 3 home work assignments and 3 online discussions.... Did not use the book that much. Ended up with an A in the class!

Dr. Beard was awesome. He likes to say "potentially" a lot. Its funny. He's a very animated teacher. If you get the extra study book that goes along with the textbook, you don't really need the textbook. I loved this class.

I love Dr. Beard!! He is an awesome teacher. He makes you learn but also is very interesting. I hate morning classes and dont mind getting up and going to his. I also had him for abnormal and also was a great professor for this class. Take him for as many classes as possible.

Dr. Beard is great!! There's a reason his classes fill up so quickly. This class is not difficult IF you come to class and listen to the lecture, also, don't think you can get by without reading the book, there are questions from the text on the tests.

I have enjoyed Dr. Beard's Social Psychology class. He really makes it interesting. I would definately recommend taking his class. His tests are a little difficult, but if you study, you should do fine. He definately makes you learn the material, which is a good thing.

Comment:

Dr. BEARD is the greatest professor in Psychology I have ever had. He made me be able to understand more about Abnormal Psychology and differences between Psychological Disorders that occur in people. Very funny, study for his exams, they are based out of the notes not many questions on the exams in the book. TAKE HIM FOR ABNORMAL PSYCHOLOGY!:o)

He absolutely blew my mind away. I came with interest, and it increased! I hung on every word he said! So great, can't wait to take him again! Very friendly, and seems to always have a smile. Very chipper in the mornings...(annoying to some, but not me!) Great professor. A MUST TAKE!
