William is a funny, knowledgeable professor but his exams can be difficult and it can be very unclear of where he gets the exam material from. Many test questions do come from the pretests he gives in class, though.

He is the best professor, very clear about the work that is expected. If you do the readings before the lectures its very helpful. The final is optional and can replace all of your test scores if it is above! hes so cute also.

Comment:

I am in the class currently but Professor Gaeddert is a great professor. He has picks some of his questions directly from the power point or pretest. He is easily accessible during office hours or even after class. He clarifies information that he did not explain well. Make sure you take notes.

Dr. Gaeddert creates powerpoints for every lecture, but doesn't read from them. Lectures are actually interesting to attend; he is well organized and very knowledgeable in the material. Best psych professor I've had.

Comment:

Dr. Gaeddert is a very odd dude. While he definitely knows what he is doing sometimes he takes awkward pauses during lectures. That being said, he is a fantastic professor and is there to help anyone who asks. Extra credit bumped my overall grade from an A- to an A so that was good. The material is super interesting ! Would take again for sure!

Honestly the best professor I've ever had. Not an extremely easy class, but if you put in the effort the outcome is great. He's a pretty fair grader. Multiple papers and presentations. Reading articles is a must.

Comment:

Really nice guy, but doesn't always explain everything clearly. His powerpoints never have much information on them, and listening to him gets boring. The tests are fair, and you'll never see information that isn't in the notes or reading. They're always 50 multiple choice questions, where some are application questions.

Took this class online. Tough class, but he is willing to help. If you put in the time and effort and address concerns with him early on, you can definitely get an A. He even wrote me a recommendation for grad school.

Pretty easy class. Very loose attendance policy. Went close to the textbook and covered a lot of test material thoroughly in class. Definitely recommended. Also very funny and a nice guy.

Comment:

please don't take this class. You have online quizzes every other day and they're hard to keep up with and don't always work. He says "Ummm" or "Uhhh" practically every other word and after awhile it gets really annoying - he's a nice guy but i don't recomend it.

Even though it was an online class, I ejoyed it far more than I thought I would. However, his key to some of the quizzes were wrong, so if you didn't check your wrong answers you could have gotton a lower score than you deserved.

He is a really nice guy, but if you don't do the reading, your in trouble. There is no big homework. Just a thing online. The tests are fine if you read, because they are completely on the reading.

Comment:

well, after the third attempt, i realized it wasn't the material, but the professor. he shows a lot of excitement but often forgets to slow down and actually teach it to his students. when explaining things overlooks the fact that you don't understand what he is talking about in the first place
