I took this class online over the summer. I found this course to be very easy, even while working 40 hours a week. There is a lot of reading, but its actually interesting. I loved this class.

I loved Dr. Furlong's class! We had easy worksheets due every class that we would discuss in small groups. It was fun to get to know classmates over the semester. Her human relations class didn't really have much lecture, which was a nice change from other classes. She is retiring after the summer, so take a class with her while you can! Loved her.

Cathy made this my favorite class I have ever taken. Everyday we would get into groups and communicate with each other. The class had no lecture. My class was Human Relations, which is interacting with others, so that's what we did everyday. She let us bring as much notes as we wanted for the test. EASY AND FUN CLASS!!!

Comment:

Professor Furlong uses the online book to teach. Built into the book is the different assignments and quizzes and tests. I had very little interaction with the professor, but I still learned a lot about psychology because the book is interactive and makes you read it and learn it. It is a lot of work though, so be prepared to read and study.

She gave great lectures, let you use a 3x5 cheat sheet on the tests, and the homework assignments were tedious but easy points.

Took psych class online. Definitely lots of homework but if you do it you should do well on the tests. Super easy if you just do your work.

Great Professor! I took her 16-week online Intro to Psychology course, and I highly recommend this class! She uploads the entire courses work so take advantage of it and work ahead! The course was well organized and easy to follow! You can check homework answers before submitting them. I am going to take her again in Developmental Psychology!

I took her 8 week online pyschology class. It was my first college class, so I wasn't sure what to expect. She was very organized and explained what she expect from you. There was LOTS of reading and a lot of homework, but it was doable.

Comment:

I took her in person class and really liked her lectures. (had to drop for health reasons) I took her online course, you basically have about 2 hours of homework a week and then a quiz. Just reading assignments, multiple choice assignments (which you can check if right or wrong before submitting)and multiple choice tests and quizzes.

Comment:

Tests are 400 points and there were 3! Also, so many assignments that do not help with the exam. the Hw for this class is unreal and so little points. My cousin has a dual masters for psch and we would average C to D's on quizzes and tests. The lady seemed nice through email but the material on the tests are crazy hard.

Professor Furlong is kind and quick to respond to emails. All work is done through McGraw-Hill learning. Don't try to complete the week's assignments in one day - it's a lot. Each week: 1 chapter, 80 questions, a few homework assignments, and a quiz over the chapter. Four exams cover the 16 chapters. Take notes, read all text, and you'll do fine.

I took this course online. Book is expensive and you need access code. Weekly assignments due (Around 6 worksheets and an 80 question workbook) and quizzes. Four tests and the final is not accumulative. Overall easy and would definitely recommend. A little heavy on the homework but it's fairly quick to complete.

Comment:

I thought this was a pretty easy course. You have unlimited attempts to finish the assignments and reading assignments. You can even check your answers before you submit it. She gives three chapters at a time and you can work ahead. Found the quizzes and exam to be easy as long as I read the chapters. Exams are easy to forget being open for one day

Comment:

I think this professor failed to realize what an "online class" is. The people who use online classes are usually those who don't have time for a strict schedule. This professor only gives you one day to complete exams, and has absolutely no wiggle room. If you accidently missed an assignment, your screwed. No consideration for her students.

I took Dr. Furlong's PSYC 1113 class as a Intersession/Fast Track offering. If you enjoy a real challenge, have good time management skills/study habits and are serious about learning, she's the best. She cares about her students but makes you work for your grade. Show up on time, show respect and participate and you will go far! She is amazing!

TERRIBLE CLASS ONLINE!!!!! DO NOT TAKE IT!!!!!! Exams are huge, quizzes are 25 questions 25 minutes. No time for error, quizzes and tests are not from the book. You have to know the definitions inside and out save yourself some time and pick another teacher.
