Comment:

Doesn't teach. Rambles for 60 minutes & reads off test questions and answers. I have never felt more like a vegetable than I do in his class. I stopped going because it was so intensely boring. Just find a quizlet and study it for 30 minutes before the test to get a 95+%. He amazingly makes interesting content boring. Also highly favors athletes

Comment:

He was a pretty good professor. Was funny at times but he kind of rambled a bit. He would get off topic at times, but overall he is respected. His class is extremely easy, as long as you show up and take notes you should leave with a B or higher

Comment:

It is impossible not to pass Dr. Maloney's class if you show up - he gives you the test questions and answers in his lectures. He is definitely passionate about psychology and he likes to get on his soap box when it comes to some issues. Overall he cares about his students and wants to see them succeed. I would definitely take his class again.

Gives you the test in class. Show up to class and you are going to get an A. Not a great student, but I've got a 94 from just showing up and writing what he tells us to.

Comment:

Boring lecture,gets off on liberal political rants, that have nothing to do with the subject matter, confusing the subject material. Half of what he says in lecture is not even related to the course material he could just say to read the chapters and that would be as good as sitting through his lectures on how Conservatives are wrecking the country

Comment:

This professor is very seasoned in his field of work, and draws on his experiences to teach the class. Lectures are extremely boring sometimes, but he gives you every test question if you show up to class. Attendance is not mandatory, but if you go to class you will get the whole test. Plus he usually lets us out at least 15 minutes early.

He is a really easy teacher and doesn't want anyone who shows up to get a bad grade. Expressly tells us the answers for most of the test. Often goes off on tangents, but usually lets us out early, which means less work. i really enjoyed him as a professor!

Very nice, seasoned, knowledgeable professor. Has a lot of field experience to draw from, which he uses in his lectures to apply what you're learning in class to the real world. I learned a great deal in his Psychology of Adolescence course.

Nice guy. Boring lectures. Talks really slow, but he gives you exactly what's going to be on the test. Tests are pretty easy as long as you paid attention. Usually lets you out of class really early.

Comment:

I thought he was a wonderful professor. If you attend class, he will tell you exactly what will be on the test. If you wanted an A, you had to do 2 papers/presentations. The best thing was that he gives very practical information concerning real-life situatations psy majors will need for counseling.

Comment:

Really annoying (this was adolescent psych and calls adolescents "youngsters") and sometimes humiliates students. His tests come straight out of the book, but the way they are written is often unclear. Easy teacher, but he gets on my nerves.

Comment:

His class is easy just read your book and take the notes. He will give you a couple of questions to the tests. I got an A. He is a pompous jerk. He states his opinion as fact. Easy A, but arrogant and pretentious.

This guy is great. The class is pretty easy and if you pay attention in lecture he gives you most of the answers that will be on the test plus a little hint to what you need to write down that will be on the test. This is an easy class if you show up.

Decent teacher, but kind of Nazi-like in terms of rules and stuff.
