Students appreciated the stimulating material presented in this course by an engaging instructor who effectively incorporated interesting media and interactivity into the lectures. Students thought that the course’s greatest shortcoming was the difficulty of quizzes and exams. Students believed the course could be improved by the addition of a discussion section. They also thought that the course could have benefitted from exploring more cases studies. Students thought it was important for potential participants to know that background knowledge of abnormal psychology would be valuable to success in this course.
