Comment:

Overall I would suggest taking this class. Even though the class had many assignments, they were not hard if you did the homework. She was clear in expectations and even gave a chance to earn extra credit. This class had 5 open note book tests and a major projects, so it required a lot of effort.

Terrible professor. Do not take her online. 5 exams and a research project that barely makes any sense. Very tough grader. All of the exams are timed which makes it very difficult to do well on them.

Comment:

At first she might look a little bit intimidating but shes not that bad in my opinion. Five online exams there are easy you can find the answers on quizlet. Be prepared to answer questions for every beginning of class. Revel textbook mandatory it just reading and answer questions. Subject pool mandatory and a research project at the end.

Comment:

The class comprises of a literature review which you are given a lot of time for and 5 tests that are taken online through Canvas. She expects you to have read the chapter prior to going to class and may give quizzes regarding the readings. As long as you read and keep your phone away during class it is not too bad.

Comment:

Took her for a 3 week online course, will never make that mistake again. She is a tough grader, and we were only graded based off of a huge research project and four exams. Does not give you enough time for the exams and does not let you see what questions you got wrong. She isn't unreasonable, but by no means flexible. Advice: avoid her if you can

WORST thing you can do. Save your GPA and don't take her. She's rude though she "tries" to seem cool by making "jokes". I regret taking the class.

Comment:

Dr. Lewis is a no nonsense professor that expects a college student to be a college student. If you're looking for an easy A, don't even bother. She makes you work. She flies thru powerpoints, but if you did the reading before class you'll be fine because you'll know what she's talking about. Her tests are open book, but timed; so still read.

Comment:

Gives good feedback in a one on one setting but if you ask for help in class she is not going to help you much. She will either email back immediately or take a while to get back to you. The syllabus is clear but she flies by in PowerPoints and you feel left behind. If you skip a reading, good luck in class.

Comment:

Listen, I didn't read or take notes. I just used the textbook to take the online tests and came out with a solid B. The literature review is not hard if you can follow directions. I think a lot of freshman freak out about this class because she is no nonsense, expects you to remember due dates, and does not coddle anyone.

This class is tough. You definitely have to read and keep up with her. I do love her teaching methods because she was funny always kept you on your toes. She likes to pick on people so try to participate. She gives extra bonus which is great because that helped me out with my grade. Just be prepare to work. I thought her test were hard.

Comment:

The class is half psych and stats. She teaches using PowerPoint. She tries to get audience participation for bonus points and assigns you groups that you practice problems with during class. Attendance is taken through a sign in sheet. Only 5 open book tests that you take at home and a research project. Homework is optional and no midterm or final.

If you don't read you won't pass. I wouldn't take her again, her teaching style is very fast paced and you'll get singled out at least once in her class.

Honestly all of her quizzes are found online. You basically search each question up online and they come up. Her class was okay, powerpoints were too fast. dont take notes in class instead take notes by READING THE TEXTBOOK! Don't have to go to class but definitely recommend since she takes points off at the end

All of her questions are copied from the Mcgraw-Hill Education site, which she obviously knows. I have 0 clue what to do with my paper because she doesn't give out feedback for anything. I'm struggling with a B- right now. Probably the biggest mistake I made in my college career was taking her class.

Avoid her, she is the worst. Does not give feedback, rude, a test every week, and is a tough grader. You would fail like I did, even when I tried everything.

Alright so here's the deal with Professor Lewis, I had her for a hybrid course---which was not very chill because I felt like her class really needed a second in person day. She is a no-nonsense woman and you need to learn how to keep up. She expects you to read but I got away with not buying the assigned books and I always had a decent grade.
