Dr. Dougherty is the sweetest ever! Lectures are always so interesting. The class is sometimes disorganized, but not too bad. There were 3 weekly assignments that were pretty easy. The weekly quizzes were sometimes confusing because the content wasn't necessarily covered, but they were manageable. Great TA's! Overall I'd recommend this class and professor. There are no exams, and one 2-3 page paper due the end of the semester, so its very manageable. +Attendance isn't mandatory |

She's a great professor! She's very kind and easygoing. She drops your lowest grades and there are no exams. She did struggle a lot with course organization so it was sometimes hard to know what was going on. She did post all of the assignments immediately, which was nice. Her quizzes often covered materials that we hadn't seen before and we never got to see our answers to know what we got wrong, but professor Dougherty was always around when you needed her and I'd highly recommend her to other students. (Sorry for the 4 star rating: the disorganization was-- it was bad. But she's working on it). |

Dr. Dougherty is an amazing professor and I highly recommend her child psychopathology class. She is kind, very open to questions, and very understanding of life situations that might come up. There are short quizzes every week that are open note, and interesting in class assignments pertaining to each topic we cover. If you put in effort, you will definitely do well. |

Overall- kind professor, easy class, came off as disorganized Grading- no exams! Weekly quizzes were 10 pts, weekly reading reflections 6pts, weekly "in class" activities 5pts. One semester paper 50pts. Pretty much one of everything (except the paper) got dropped. Grading was quick on everything. Assignments are very clear and she stuck to the syllabus. Structure- MW 1h15 lectures. M in person and W on zoom. It was a little odd having the hybrid but it seemed to work. After the first 2 weeks, lecture sessions seemed very disorganized, so I stopped going. I would occasionally get on the zoom lecture for a topic that seemed interesting, but the class went slow and took forever to get started. Also people asking questions seemed to eat into class time a lot. Felt like a much better use of my time to just do the work on my own outside of class. I think the class has the potential to be much better structured. Professor- Aside from the disorganized class structure she seems really awesome. Dr Dougherty's experience is a great match for the content of the class and she seems to really enjoy teaching about it. She also was very receptive to questions and provided thoughtful answers. She and the TAs were very responsive with grading and emails. I feel bad giving only 4 stars because she was so nice but due to course structure I can't really say it was a 5 star class. There's definitely potential to be 5 stars though, because Dr Dougherty is knowledgable and kind! I would recommend taking this course in the future because Dr Dougherty definitely seems like the type of person to read student feedback and implement changes. Additional- a good number of guest lectures which were a neat opportunity! |
