Dr. A is an amazing professor! I really enjoyed the class and the material. It is all super interesting and personal. Everything you learn you tie back to yourself which is super cool. You definitely have to put in a good amount of time, there are readings twice a week which take up a while, but if you're interested in the material it's super worth it. If you already have a busy semester maybe save this course for next semester, but if you don't have the craziest schedule I HIGHLY recommend this class!

Prof. Alexander is awesome! There are four exams (one which you have to write yourself but it's not hard) a little project you have to do. There are opportunities for extra credit so don't fret. She's very animated and really wants people to do well. So speak up and say intelligent things. Not a hard class at all. Very easy to get an A. I studied the night before for every exam, including the final and got high A's on all of them.

Dr. Alexander (prefers to be called Dr. A) is a very loving and enthusiastic professor who will brighten up your day. Her lectures are engaging and fun to be a part of. The lectures themselves are a little unorganized in terms of following along with the syllabus. She might not cover everything in one lecture so she probably will not test you on it. PowerPoint slides are posted on ELMS. I recommend printing these out because Alexander flies right through them during lecture. Dr. A makes an effort to learn many of her student's names (so watch out if you get called on in class). The class material is pretty straightforward and boring. Discussion sections are mandatory (turn in assignments and stuff). 3 midterms, 1 final, and 1 behaviorism project. No excuse not to get an A in this class.

Good class. Alexander is awesome - she's a great lecturer and she literally remembers everyone's name eventually. She studies the class roster pictures and tries to learn as many names as she can before the class even starts. Her book is REALLY boring which is weird because her lecturing is interesting / funny. No cell phones or laptops allowed in her lectures though. Sometimes the topics are boring but she makes it as interesting as possible. Discussion is fun too- her TAs have been with her for years and are very helpful! There are exams, but not normal exams at all. A different style of test. Many assignments but they aren't that difficult and are sometimes fun. A couple projects as well. Recommended!

i expected to get an A in this course that i heard was very easy. this class is an absolute joke. she experiments with all her assignments and directions are never clear. she only rounds grades for people who get As on the last two exams. she gave me a C and i had a 79.9 in her class. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. all exams are written worth around 18 points a page and if you forget one word they take off major points. AVOID this class unless you really need to take it.
