Comment:
He just rambles about how interesting and smart he thinks he is, or how the University is ripping students off, and then tests are open book from the book. Easy, but you won't learn much.

Very good instructor. He only lectures for 20 minutes every time. Never there longer than 30 minutes. Sometimes seems to repeat things, and the tests could be confusing. Overall a GREAT guy! Extremely nice, and caring.

Dr. Cavasina is awesome! I had him for child psych, there's only three exams all very easy as long as you look over the notes. His lectures arent that long he never keeps you more than 30 minutes, ive learned a lot from him

Comment:
I thought he was a great teacher. On all of his test, you got to use your notes and book. So that's def. a plus! He's easy to understand, and is a very nice guy. He's easy to talk to if you ever need help with anything. I would recommend him!

Doctor Cavasina is excellent! I have no idea what this other guy was talking about when he said the questions came out of nowhere. If you copy what he says about the disorders and pretty much everything (make sure to bring a laptop and type fast because he does talk fast) but if you go to class and pay attention his tests aren't so bad!

Comment:
His tests have stuff on them he probably never even heard of before. He gets to talking about kids and their problems in child psych and makes no sense then hands us a test straight out of a text book. This class was impossible to get an A in if you ask me. I would never recommend it b/c you can have all the notes but still have to guess on tests

Comment:
I had him for two classes, Child and Abnormal Pysch and both were great! The most he talked was 30 minutes and there were only 3 test for each class(i learned more in these psych classes than any other). Each class was enjoyable and very interesting; his examples were very understanding. I highly recommend him.

Cavasina is very nice, tests can kind of be worded wierd so make sure you go to class and study your notes. Not a bad class. I would take him again.

Comment:
Took child psych as a requirement to get my teaching certification. I already have a B.S. in Psychology and somehow I got a B in this class. The lectures and notes are unorganized and, often times, not even CORRECT information. Easy class to get by, but don't take it if you actually want to learn anything. It is ridiculous.

Great professor! Only taught for 25 minutes every single day! Only 3 exams that you study directly from your notes for. Plus he grades on a huge curve. His grade for a full A was 84-100 for my Child Psych class! He's such a pleasure to have for class!! Take him for anything he teaches!!!

Comment:
If you attend most of his lectures and try to write down the key points, then itwill help you to some point. 3 exams were given. The last 2 were open book/notes. This did help consideribly, especially on the 2nd exam. Final exam was ridiculously hard though, and not too clear. Must admit, this is not an easy A; but still, u dont have to study a lot

i had him for child, abnormal, adolescent, and adjustment. obviously i think he's a wonderful prof. he believes quality not quantity so his classes are short. you do have to study for his tests though
