Said attendance was mandatory but wouldn't always take it. When he did he'd rush through it and most students would have to go after class to write name down. Don't have many assignments but the only big one he doesn't really explain and it's a group one but you have little to no contact with your group?? Def wouldnt take this class again

I couldn't recommend Prof. Nielsen enough. He is great at giving engaging lectures and is just a kind human in general. We are graded by 2 papers, weekly personality tests, and 3 open note online exams. Great class with a great teacher.

Professor Nielsen is a great professor. Online exams, he is easygoing, kind, and caring. Lectures were interesting, graded by some papers, criteria for the papers is always clear and if you follow them well you should do very well. Always willing to help and answer questions. Take classes with him if you can

Was a really good professor, although they do kinda send the guidelines for the essay very last minute but was an interesting course!

one book to read, weekly personality tests, 2 papers, a midterm, final paper, and final exam. didn't upload the instructions for papers until the week it was due so that was pretty stressful. iclicker attendance, but all of the exams are take-home/open note. overall good professor and really interesting class, but could be a little more organized.

I thought Nielsen was great. The workload was a little heavy, a quiz and essay due every other week, but the class was pretty easy overall. Lecture was easy to follow even if a bit boring at times, and I liked Nielsen as a person. Good class.
