This is a great professor. Definitely listen to the lectures throughout the semester, they really help you understand the material, though it's pretty straight-forward. Very detail oriented, but it's a great professor who genuinely enjoys teaching the class.

This class has no textbook, so even though class is early in the morning, try to pay attention and take notes during class so you don't have to re-listen to lectures (which Dr. Adams records and puts on Collab) later at home. Pay attention ot the diagrams, too! Tests are fair, and the take-home parts of tests do help boost your grade. There are group critiques of 3 research papers you have to do - try to figure out a system that works well for your group so you don't end up writing it last-minute. Dr. Adams invites everyone over to his house for chili dinner at the end of the semester - definitely go!

The class doesn't have a textbook but there are audio lectures which definitely come in handy. You don't have to do much work besides the tests(which are take home) and group papers. Interesting class and Professor Adams is enthusiastic about the topics loves teaching. 8am is a bit early but I would definitely recommend this class.

Great professor. Adams made the class enjoyable. Make sure you plan out accordingly if you want to listen to the recorded lectures again before tests so you're not listening to hours of lectures the night before. Make sure to pay attention to the diagrams in class too. Lastly, go to the chili dinner!

One of the best professors at UVA. tests were entirely based on his lectures. the reviews on articles were graded a little hard though

This was an awesome class! Professor Adams is a fantastic teacher- he's enthusiastic, knowledgeable, approachable, and funny. The material was presented in a very comprehensive manner and he really helped make difficult concepts seem intuitive. The exams are fair (there's 3 of them and a final) and they consist of T/F and multiple choice. There are also 3 short review articles you write in groups during discussion sections (which only meet 6 times during the semester). There were 2 homework assignments that count as part of your test grade, which was a good grade booster. Oh and an added bonus, Professor Adams invites all of his students over to his house for chili during finals!
