Took this online. Was definitely one of the most boring classes I have ever taken. Tests were difficult and tricky and the only part of your grade.

Comment:

Boring lectures but does provide quizzes for you to review. Grading is a little obnoxious since there are only 3 exams...It's very easy to mess up your grade. He's retiring and nice enough though.

Comment:

Dr. Martin is an excellent psychology teacher. He definitely knows the material and relates it to real-life examples so the students can understand. The exams were fairly easy minus the fact that to get a 100% you need to read the book. 4 out of 40 questions come from the book. Attendance is mandatory. Topics are very interesting.

Comment:

Dr. Martin tries hard to make his information fun and interesting, but for the most part, it's just not. He also tries to be funny and talks about his three or four ex-wives sometimes. The exams are pretty rough, unless you have studied a lot. He covers a lot of information, but the final isn't cumulative, so I guess that's a plus.

Comment:

Class is EXTREMELY BORING and attendance is mandatory. He's a nice guy with funny stories but has a monotonous voice that lulls you to sleep. Exams, however, are very fair (no cumulative final), and if you study the learning evaluations and skim over the book you should easily make a B+, and even an A if you try hard.

Comment:

Professor Martin class was pretty boring and attendance is mandatory. He only gets few questions from the book and its not worth reading it. You can easily get a b just from looking over the chapter quizs he hands out for everyone

Great teacher. A great speaker so lectures are interesting. The tests are tricky and reading the book will definitely help boost your grades on the tests. Just be in class and pay attention. He makes the class enjoyable.

Comment:

Attendance is a must or you will fail. Must read textbook to get an A. Otherwise, excellent teaching style for an introductory course. Really breaks things down into understandable chunks. Knows his subject. Have to participate in some psych experiments or do a small paper. Great class for anyone interesting in Psychology, no matter your career aim

Comment:

He was extremely boring. He uses power points when he lectures and he goes through them fast and skips over some so its hard to write everything down. Luckily all the notes are online. I suggest you don't take his class.

This class is very easy to understand, and you learn a lot from what he teaches! Make sure you take notes from his overhead presentations and always attend the review sessions before the tests, he will tell you everything you need to know! Such a cool guy, A+!

Knows what he is teaching and teaches it well. Make sure to go to class, because attendance is mandatory. Don't buy the book you won't need it. Just do the learning evals on his website and you will do fine.

Must go to class. Attendance is a very big deal and can fail u very quickly. Good interesting professor. Know the learning evaluations and the tests will be a breeze. Have to read the book to get an A or higher. I never read the book and got a B+ so it comes down to how bad you want an A ! Good clear professor ! Always let class out 15 min early !

Easy if you go to class, TAs do actually take attendance in this HUGE class. The research requirement is easy, its pass/fail so i didn't bother with the Experimentrix stuff. Learning Evaluations online are EXACTLY like the tests. Know those and your golden, only 4 test questions on the 3 tests are from the book. Overall good prof, makes interesting

Dr. Martin is a very easy teacher. I slept pretty much every class and Im still going to get an A in that class. If you study lecture notes and evaluation quizzes that he posts online you will do fine on tests.
