Comment:

She's funny, but her lectures are kinda boring. She does a lot of research on students, and I had to teach myself out of class a lot. The Textbook/Reval is the only thing that helped me in this class.

Comment:

She is absolutely hilarious and snorts when she laughs. Her lectures are pretty boring but there are clicker questions at the end of the lecture to help you prepare for the test. Those are test questions! Four tests and a final throughout semester, you will need to read the text book. Tests aren't hard as long as you know your stuff. Great teacher.

Comment:

She is by far the coolest professor, she is outgoing and makes this a fun class. Her test loads are heavy so make sure you study hard! But with her extra credit and the weekly quizzes, you can keep your grade up pretty well in this class. This subject is very interesting and she makes me excited to go to this class and actual engage in discussion.

Comment:

She responded well with feedback & would have some interesting discussions. She occasionally made false claims without supporting research. Lectures didn't keep up with the online homework, she'd assign work not shown in the syllabus that didn't aide the learning process, & had a strict attendance policy which shouldn't be a thing in college.

Comment:

Dr. Whipple was an INCREDIBLE professor. She made learning about psychology so interesting and fun. Each week you are assigned MyPsychLabs, which are a big part of your grade. If you read, show up to class, and study your notes, the class is an easy A.

Comment:

Dr. Whipple is fun and engaging. I had her for human sexuality, and enjoyed every day in class. While attendance is part of the grade, I was always excited to come to class and found the discussions useful. Be prepared to be open and talk about your sex life, while not mandatory, communication in the class makes it way more entertaining.

There are a lot of teacher's assistants, so it is easy to get in contact with someone if you have questions or concerns. Tests are not too difficult as long as you read over the book.

Comment:

Dr. Whipple knows a lot about psychology, the practice of psychology, human sexuality, and how to get students interested. The flip side of that is that she is quite the sensationalist. If you're there to get the facts and learn, you might get a little more of a "show" with each period. But she is a wonderful professor with great teaching practices

Comment:

I hated PSY 121 with Dr. Whipple. Most days in lectures I would put my earbuds in and press buttons on the clicker just to get attendance. I learned nothing from going to lecture and listening to her and pretty much self taught myself the entire class. I would always be asking my roommate to look at his notes because his professor was good.

Comment:

Dr. Whipple made a huge class feel smaller. Definitely knows her stuff, I would recommend taking her for PSY121. Her tests are all multiple choice, and unlike a lot of professors there are multiple chances to earn more points in her class besides tests. Buy and READ the book, it is necessary. Her slides do not cover all the material.

Comment:

Whipple is to die for! Hilarious and totally understands students! You have to read the book and do the online portion which is tedious. Lectures are an overview of the chapter readings. Do the online tests and review them then go to the study sessions. Its mainly freshman so prepare to be annoyed if you're an upperclassmen! You will not regret her

Dr. Whipple is a must take professor!! Attendance is mandatory and you get points based on attendance, but going to her class is easy because she makes it fun and she's hilarious! She doesn't give study guides before the test, but if you show up to class, pay attention to lectures, and look at the power points you'll be fine. Highly recommend her!

Comment:

I absolutely love this woman. She gives it to you straight, isn't afraid to say what people are thinking, and respects all points of view. I've never been so interested in a social science class as much as I have been in all her classes. I tell everyone at MSU to take Human Sexuality with her because she's a literal angel on this rotten earth.

Dr. Whipple really knows her stuff when it comes to Human Sexuality! Lecture are so interesting, and all you really have to do is show up and take notes. There's a few easy online assignments, but other than that just come and enjoy the class!
