CollegeOne of my favorite professors ever. She is so passionate and explains concept in a really digestible way. She allows you to retake weekly quizzes until you pass and has a few reflection papers you write on dev. psych studies. Wish I went to office hours more and got to know her more.
She was great. You need to attend lecture to understand her slides but if you pay attention everything makes sense. I enjoyed her class a lot.
My favorite class so far! The lectures were super interesting and they help you understand the experiments that are on the tests. There were weekly quizzes and discussions, and three ELI reviews. Definitely recommend this professor!
Amazing professor. Going to lecture is extremely important because the slides alone do not provide enough information by themselves. One of the most interesting and meaningful classes I've taken so far.
had her last quarter and her lectures were super fun (often showed videos of her kids doing a task related to the course content). very clear and flexible grading guidelines (3 different options for grading based on what assignments u complete).
She's amazing. I can't begin to explain how grateful I was that all of the assignments were so clear and all perfectly coordinated. The quizzes/summaries/discussion posts are all graded on participation, but doing them will help you so much on the exams. Go to class and you'll do great!
