PSY111 . Kippin T E 2 Years Ago

Did PSY 111 as a flipped course. Very informative and did a great job explaining hard material. Also a lot of exam questions are on the study guides.

PSY111 . Kippin T E 2 Years Ago

Initially, I didn't get the structure at all. I stopped going to lectures after week 5. Started using lecture time to study and make flashcards and it paid off. If you write clear notes and understand basic college study strategies you'll be alright. Study hard before tests and you will do well.

PSY111 . Kippin T E 3 Years Ago

Lecture slides often out of order, quickly breezes over material that needs way more explanation. Structure: watch 1hr lecture (takes 2hrs), then go to class to go over the same slides+ more. 2 midterms and final online, and up to 3% added to grade for an essay q graded on completion. Class can be frustrating, but A is very doable.

I took Psy111/211 in 2022. I really don't understand the negative feedback. Dr. Kippin is such a chill guy and you basically only have to watch and understand the lectures. Just put some effort into it and you'll be rewarded. Also, he knows his stuff.

His lectures are very loaded but watching them a couple times definitely helps! He was very chill during the pandemic, easy A as long as you do the quizzes and pay attention.

Tod is the most understanding and caring professor during the pandemic. There were no midterms this quarter, just weekly quizzes & he gives you the question a week in advance. There are group projects as well but thats how I was able to make a study group for this class and the final was based off the quizzes he gave throughout the quarter.
