Topic is extremely interesting but the professors are just awful for this class. If it's not mandatory, DONT TAKE THIS CLASS. The tests are extremely confusing. Good luck. You were warned.

Comment:

Horrible class. Such an interesting topic but taught so poorly, and there's like 5 different teachers so it's super off-putting. Class is beyond boring and the slides aren't even engaging, literally white background, black times new roman font, no clear bulletted levels, just words regurgitated on a page.

Comment:

Attendance is not mandatory, but there is extra credit if you go. This class is split up and taught by 5 different professors, so no time to get used to anyone's teaching style. Getting an A is impossible unless you read the book and memorize the slides. 10/10 would not recommend. Also if you get an A or A- it is a 4.0 a B+ or B- is 3.0... etc.

Comment:

You have to attend her class to understand what's on her slides. She leaves quite a lot of questions in her slides without answers, so attend her class. Her class is the most boring among the others'. Rmb to refer to yr textbook!! Well she's a nice person. Talk to her and she'll help.

Comment:

While she was nice to students, she could be a little difficult to follow. The grade for her team-taught class (psych 216) was based solely off of 3 exams. Would not recommend if you are a bad tester.

She was a very knowledgeable teacher who loved what she did. She was clear in her lectures and more than helpful in the review sessions.

Comment:

She was BORING AS HELL! She was the most awful teacher of the 9 we got as part of the team taught Psyc 216. I went to 1 of her lectures and skipped the next 3. Still got a perfect on the test, proving that her lectures were useless. If I ever see her as a the teacher for a psych course I DO NOT take it.

Comment:

She led the team teaching approach to 216... it was very hard to follow and much harder than I thought. All your grade goes into 3 tests, and with differing teaching styles it is difficult to succeed.
