Comment:
took this class two years ago and dropped it because prof was boring and course packet with notes was so hard to follow. he knows the material but was not good at teaching it, was boring, and you could hardly hear him since he couldn't figure out how to use the mic. take 224 with federmeier, she puts notes online, is clear, and very nice.

Comment:
Totally agree with previous ratings- knows so much about what he's talking about that he forgets he's talking to a room full of upperclass undergrads and not one full of similarly-distinguished research psychologists. The selected readings were really interesting, and help understanding A LOT- but bring coffee to class!

Comment:
Dulany seems like he knows his stuff throughly but his ability to communicate to a class of undergraduates is limited at best. He seems to find a way to present simple material in the most complex fashion possible. He is better suited to lecture other professors or graduate students. Tests were 80% from his class lectures.

Comment:
If the reverse of "those who can't do, teach" is true then that explains A LOT. Dulany knows what he's talking about -- he just can't teach it to save his life. His notes are like English translated into Japanese and then back into English again. Try and take this class with a different teacher.

The content is very easy, and the professor is very intelligent, but the format he uses to teach is horrible. Try and stay awake.
