Course Evaluations
Spring 2015 (Halberda)
Professor: Justin Halberda
The best part about this course was the professor’s never-ending curiosity that made lecture engaging and fun. Students appreciated the interesting material and its applicability to everyday life. Some students felt there were too many students in the class, while others indicated that the exam format left them unsure how to prepare given the volume of material covered. This course could be improved by incorporating a rubric for papers. Prospective students should know that coming into the course with an open mind will improve their quality of life. No background knowledge is needed in psychology to do well in this course.
