Professor Wood is really great. The work is super manageable, and a lot of the topics are very interesting and straightforward. The studies that she brings up are really cool and applicable to real life. There are mandatory readings every week, but I forgot more than a couple and managed to scrape an A, anyway. You can only turn in the questions on the textbook an hour after the official due date, otherwise you get a zero. You have to do six hours of participation in research, but as long as you stay on top of it, it's totally manageable to do all of them online. The exams aren't too bad, and they do curve it a little, which is nice. I believe all the lectures get posted, but there's an extra credit based on an in-class assignment that she randomly chooses, so you might want to attend lectures. It's a pretty easy class overall, but very interesting.
Personally, I found this class very challenging because it is mostly based on your exam grades. She gives insane extra credit which is a huge boost and she is a really helpful/good lecturer. If you need this as a requirement, I highly recommend you take it just be sure to study for the exams ahead of time.
Prof Wood is positive, gives great lectures, and is very kind towards students. Lectures do get very boring and the class is almost entirely memorization, but tests are fair and it's not hard to do well if you put a lot of time in. Homework is only interactive textbook chapters. Overall, just a solid lecture class that I def learned a lot from.
#tCFF23. This class was incredibly interesting and manageable except for the fact that I found the exams quite difficult. I never had taken a Psych class before so that probably made it more difficult on my end by Professor Wood is an excellent and very understanding professor. We had weekly textbook homework assignments and if you simply show up to class you can get up to 3% in extra credit.
