He is an amazing professor, and a lot of the material covered on exams is in lectures only. He makes material very easy to remember during lecture if you pay attention. Overall, an amazing professor in my opinion!!

Comment:

Myers was a chill dude. You have to pay attention in class to do well because things he says will appear on exams, but overall I didn't think they were unfair. You get tested on a lot, so lots of point chance. Funny guy as he'll go off an rants about his past addictions and existentialism that are not related to class.

He is a great professor. Lectures are always very interesting and he explains well. Exams are avery specific so you need to go to lectures because he often asks exam questions relating to things he talks about in class. Exams are tricky but gives you other opportunities to excel.

Comment:

I would recommend doing the readings, there are small Moodle quizzes based off them. His class does have a few tests and one or two assignments, but if you talk to him and ask for his opinion, he will help you get an A. His first exam may be hard, but you quickly learn what he expects and you will succeed on the next two if you prepare.

Comment:

Never knew what he wanted. Test questions were often too specific to study for. Class was ok, he can go off on tangents regarding some topics. Teaching philosophy revolved around student effort; if you weren't doing well it was your fault. Didn't supply any slides for review use, and generally moved too quickly for you to take consistent notes.

Comment:

Myers is the best. Very approachable guy and loves what he does. Lectures are never boring and he makes sure everyone understands the concepts. Does not take attendance but a lot of information from lectures is on the exams so I would definitely recommend attending, especially since it's enjoyable anyway. Fair grader and really enjoyed his class.

Best professor I've had at Bucknell so far. Loves what he does and his passion is contagious. Classes were never dull. He is a really smart guy. Tests are hard, but he is always more than happy to meet for help. He expects a lot from his students but in return he gives 100% to his courses and students. Take him if you get the chance!

Prof Myers is a great prof! He makes class interesting and is genuinely interested in the course material. His exams aren't easy but if you study for them, you'll be fine. Make sure that you do exactly what he asks of you for your assignments so you don't lose easy points

Professor Myers is one of the best professors I've had at Bucknell. No matter how tired I am on a given day, Myers knows how to keep the room alive. His energy and knowledge of the material he teaches are truly fun to be around. I highly recommend Myers to anyone interested in psychology or just looking for an interesting class!

Comment:

The most fantastic professor I've had at Bucknell. Really loves what he does and is always trying to figure out better ways to help his students get whatever he is teaching. The work isn't too light or too heavy but it does actually get you thinking. I have now taken 3 classes with him and have gotten a lot out of all of them.

Comment:

Professor Myers is funny and passionate. He loves Psychology, and teaches it empirically; he's clearly a dedicated scientist, and it shows in his lectures. Attendance isn't mandatory, but strongly encouraged, as many of his exam questions come from lectures (which he goes out of his way to make engaging).

Comment:

Myers is a funny guy and a good teacher. he problem is that in order to do well you HAVE to do the readings every night.(Atleast an hour of horrible, boring text),he does not cover all of the information from the readings in class but still tests you on it, so if you cant teach yourself then dont take this class.

Had him for learning, and he is one of the best teachers i've had at bucknell. really engaging and interested in what he teaches. make sure you go to all classes as tests are mostly from notes. watch out for final- completely different structure from class tests

Myers is one of the best professors at Bucknell. Really helpful, classes are interesting, and he's a really funny guy. The only bad thing about Myers is that his tests are sometimes unnecessarily hard. Still, Psych 100 was one of the best classes I've had.

Great, enthusiastic teacher. Attendance is not mandatory, but in the long run it is, in the sense that if you go to class the material is MUCH easier to understand. He is very helpful in that he supplies sample questions before each exam.

Comment:

Good teacher for Intro and for Learning, nice guy, smart. But beware, Advanced Learning Adaptive Behavior is HARD AS HELL. I did well in Learning but I am struggling to keep up in the seminar. Interesting topics but at a complicated level and he doesn't explain. He expects everyone to get it and keep up and its alot to handle.
