She is one of my favorite professors. She is a kind lady with alot of experience and stories that she shares with the class. She does tend to junp all over the place from topic to topic but she explains everything well. I really dont know how anyone could complain about her. She is so nice and an overall great and caring professor.

Comment:

If you want to take a class where you learn absolutely nothing and get an easy A this is the teacher to take. All quizzes and exams are online. Assuming attendance is mandatory because nobody would show up otherwise. Seriously most boring, awful class ever. You'll end up hating psych, but at least you get an A.

Comment:

She puts every exam and quiz and power point online from day 1 so you could technically do it all and be done whenever you want. She takes attendance and needs a little help with technology but you just mention it in class she will fix it and give everyone extra attempts for any mistakes she made. She is kind and funny and got us free pizza 1 time!

Comment:

She lets you take your quizzes online and continue taking them until you get 100%. She gives you 2 bonus points for every class you attend. She gives long lectures, but puts the power points online. It is hard not to get an A in this class.

Comment:

Dr. Sherburne is a nice lady (from what I've experienced online). She responds to emails fairly quickly, and she listens to your opinions on things. The material is hard, but she makes it easier. If you're not good at stats but still have to take this course, I'd recommend her for sure. I would definitely take her again if I could.

Dr. Sherburne is really nice and knows the material well. She gets off topic a lot and shows tons of videos. Exams and quizzes are all online. She takes attendance, so showing up affects your grade. If you need Psych 280 I would definitely recommend her. Easy A!

She is a really nice lady and pretty funny. Always brought us pizza and cookies. Very forgetful and doesn't give tests back right away, but if you do the review and study you should be more than fine. Tons of bonus. Lab is easy. Half the time you finish in one day and dont have to go the rest of the week if you dont want.

Comment:

Dr.Sherburne was one of my favorite Psych professors. She really cares about her students, and makes the class fun by using her humor. The class was difficult, and I had to work hard to receive an A. If you study for the tests and complete all of your lab work, you'll do fine!

Comment:

This class is horrible! She goes over powerpoints and expects you to learn the rest on your own, tests are straight essay (she chooses 4/14 on study guide), never in class to ask questions when confused, barely any points and almost impossible to get good grade on exam even with studying! If you take this class, be prepared to teach yourself&study!

This is my second online summer class I have taken from Dr. Sherburne. The way she sets up her class makes it easy to get an A, while still learning the material without too much effort. I would highly recommend it.

160 points total in the class. Tests are essays and hard to get full credit for any prompt. She's disorganized and scatterbrained as well and she tends to get mad at people when you ask her to repeat things. I would not recommended her or the class.

She is really helpful and caring. Her lectures can be a bit confusing and exams are not always related to the information learned:), but she is fair on grading.

I took the class online this summer. Dr. Lou is wonderful! She lays everything out in her syllabus, but if you need help, she is always available and approachable. If you take this class, be prepared to write a lot. I found the class extremely easy.

Comment:

She made this class optional to attend. I found it easier to just take all of the online quizzes and exams without going to class. They were word for word in the book and could take them as many times as you wanted until you got the score you wanted. Went to class twice all semester for half hour each time and got a B.

Comment:

She is a wonderful professor. She brings snacks for the tests which are all essay but if you study the study guides, you should do okay. She explains everything well and answers questions. The lab is easy but she's not in the room much if you have a question. Overall, I'd love to take her again!

Comment:

Great professor! Dr. S is a sweetheart and makes lectures as enjoyable as possible. Tests are pretty much all essay, but if you you write out the study guide completely, the tests aren't bad. Labs are easy and help boost your grade. Although if you need help, she often leaves the classroom for long periods of time before you'll see her again.

My favorite professor. The lectures occasionally went off topic but ended up where we needed to be at the end of class. The tests were no problem with the study guide provided. Go to class, study the guide and you will earn an A.

Cora Lou is AWESOME, however, her tests are dumb. If you want to waste all your time filling out a useless study guise that doesnt help you, then take her.
