The best aspects of this course included the three instructors who individually provided varied perspectives on the course material. Also, students enjoyed the subject matter and the in-depth lectures delivered in class. One student felt the lack of assignments kept him/her from maintaining due focus on the material. Another student felt the lectures disproportionately focused on vision and hearing. Suggestions included recording the lectures and incorporating homework into the semester. Prospective students are encouraged to read the textbook and to study hard and often for the exams.

The best aspects of this course include the interesting material covered, the engaging and knowledgeable instructors, and the amount of information presented in a semester. The worst aspect of this course was the exams. The format was short answer, and was chal enging to study for because of the amount of information covered. Suggestions for improving the course included slowing down the pace of lectures, more opportunities for graded work, and having more guidance regarding the exams. Prospective students should know that there is a lot of memorization required, the grading is curved, but the course is interesting overall.

The best part about this course was that it was easy to understand and it was obvious that the professor wanted students to learn. Students agreed that the professor provided informative and concise lectures, conveyed the information effectively, and was always available to help students who were confused. Some students found it frustrating to have tests every other week. This course could be improved by using Panopto recordings, and by having more supplementary videos posted online to help explain concepts. Prospective students should know that no background in neuroscience or biology is necessary to do well.
