160SK . Klein S B 2 Months Ago

Professor Klein runs a thought-provoking class. While lectures can be dense, paying attention and doing the readings pays off. unstuck study was a game-changer for class prep.

Klein offers a fresh perspective on the field of brain science that few other PBS profs do. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the topics he covers and his passion for this knowledge is inspiring. The class itself is graded simply on a midterm and final exam. I can't recommend taking a class from Klein enough - it is an experience like no other.

the class is made up of midterm and final. you have to buy an expensive book he wrote. lectures are informative and entertaining, he normally ends class early. he'll lyk what will be on the exams, questions are straight to the point as long as you study you will do good. I didn't read the book and still got an A but recommend doing the readings

PSY148 . Klein S B 6 Months Ago

he doesn't post lecture slides and makes you buy a really expensive textbook he wrote. lectures were entertaining and never lasted the entire 3 hours. he lets you know what will be on the exams. exams are easy and straight to the point so as long as you study you should do fine. i never read the readings and got an A- but I would recommend reading

I get why some people wouldn't like his lecture style, but I really enjoyed it. Class once a week, no mike, no slides, just lecturing - sounds intimidating, but I promise it's not. Your grade is only based on two exams, but the class isn't super dense w/ material - if you go to lecture and study, it's fine. Klein is a prof I'll remember for a while

I really enjoyed this class and the way it was taught. Lecture was once a week and varied anywhere from 1 hr - 2.5 hrs. Prof makes it clear what is needed to succeed in his class and is very straightforward. He is visibly passionate about the material and about teaching, making class enjoyable. Definitely recommend!
