Klein intelligent. You can tell he understands his field very well. He uses the chalkboard, presents information clearly. No Power-points. He will tell you what he expects you to know for tests so make sure you listenattend lectures. He tends to try to explain things as if he aspires to be a philosopher. Logical, humorous and brilliant minded.

I loved this class! Professor Klein uses the blackboard, so I worried initially, but it really helped! This way, the pace was manageable, plus he regularly made sure everyone followed. It's been too long since I last learned so well. With his teaching, the info just stuck so well. Fascinating material + GREAT teacher = sponge-like absorbency = A.

Kein is a genius. He really is brilliant and you will be able to see that when you go to his class. He bases his tests off of lecture, so I highly encourage you go. He does not use powerpoint, but he really tries to make the material clear. His midterm had no material from the book, but the final did. The midterm is easy, but the final is harder.

Amazing class, probably my favorite at ucsb so far. very easy, i found it quite obvious what we had to know. learn the as notes and you pretty much get an a in the class. he can seem a little unapproachable, but he is a very sweet guy. id recommend this class to everyone.

I really enjoyed this class, the concepts and his style. He is very patient and wants students to understand. Prof Klein actually enjoys teaching and he wants us to have critical thinking during lectures. I like his humor and the fact that he knows his topic so well. The clinical cases are fascinating. I highly recommend this class

He is probably one of the most interesting professors you will meet on campus. He's Italian, but he speaks fluent Japanese and English! He's very passionate about EACS department and religion. Go to office hours if you are confused about anything he's really nice about explaining the text. He knows his stuff!

This class is what made me so interested in the Psych major. Going to lecture really helps understand all of his genius concepts and give you some test answers but you can also buy the notes at the AS office which help for studying. The midterm was super easy if you understand the main ideas and study! Go to the review sessions.

He's a great teacher! I don't know why people are so critical of him. He doesn't use lecture slides so that you actually have to listen to what he's saying, and that means attending class. He's really smart and some things can go over your head the first time, but he explains it again if you ask! Great professor, great class.

His textbook is impossible to understand. His lectures are kind of all over the place and he doesn't use lecture slides so attendance is mandatory. His tests and written like his book so also very hard to understand. He doesn't do anything online so good luck trying to reach him outside of class...He's funny though..

I was scared when I heard he doesn't use powerpoint but he is extremely clear during lecture and his AS notes are a good supplement (but don't rely on them, they don't include everything). His tests are straightforward with no surprises but READ THE BOOK, it's dry and sometimes confusing so go to his office hours when you need clarification.

I also had him for 102 and he is a great professor! It shows how knowledgable he is on this material when he plans his lecture right on the spot. I think by not using powerpoint, he engages the class more because people have to actually listen to what he says. He uses helpful examples for experiments and tells us the main findings in each one.

Ive been so used to professors using pwrpnt that it was diff. for me to really be able to summarize the important parts of what he was talking about. This is why I relied heavily on the AS notes and the book. btw READ THE BOOK! About 30% of the midterms are based on the books studies. He is overall a good prof. and excellent lecturer.

This class may seem difficult, but that's because he actually requires you to "think" unlike other typical professors. He has Asperger Syndrome and a PhD from Harvard. Leading psychologist in his field. What more could you want from a professor?

Teaches the Japanese portion of EACS4A. Lectures are interesting & do a great job of clarifying the reading. The class is great & requires mandatory section participation, an 8-pg paper, 1 midterm, 1 final (exams include ID's, essays). Listen carefully when he lectures: he speaks fast sometimes, & elaborates on details that aren't on the slides.

Rambelli is really entertaining and clearly interested in the subject. This class is totally doable, with a written midterm and final and an 8 page paper. The course isn't enthralling but the professors do a great job of trying to make it interesting and helping students master the concepts. Recommend it for a writing GE.

Interesting class and material, tests are challenging.

Awesome dude, created legitimate interest in the course and was really passionate about the subject. Be sure to study lectures though, since most of the class was weighed on them and be aware that his test are pretty tough.

Really enjoyed Klein's lectures. When I first heard he doesn't use Powerpoint I was put off, but after one lecture I was totally cool with it. You can actually focus on what he is saying rather than worrying about writing down everything on a slide. Lectures are very interesting. I would definitely recommend taking a class with him.

Amazing professor!

He is alright. Rambles on about random things. Does not write everything on the board that you need to know for test. AS notes are not as helpful as you think. good luck

Great lecturer: funny and engaging. Clearly outlines what he expects from students. Easy and fair grader; tests are straightforward. Always go to lecture and read the book, it helps supplement what he says! Plus he actually tests you on it.

It's sad that this is the last time he is teaching Social Psych because he is a really interesting professor. Lectures are mandatory because he doesn't have lecture slides. He will even give away some answers to the exams just to spite those who skip class. Overall, really funny guy and made the material easy to absorb!

Really fun and interesting class. The first midterm was really easy and the final was a little more difficult. The reader is a very hard read but most of the material is covered in lectures. If you've taken any of his classes before it's pretty much a review of those with a little more emphasis on the self.

Great professor
