I believe this is his first time doing online.The first week was a bit frustrating because he didn't post things how he said he was. But now he got the hang of it, and he is doing great. As long has you read the book,listen to the podcast and read them you'll do great.

Adam is a great teacher and very funny. Participation is key and you MUST TAKE NOTES. There is one big group project but as long as you do your part, you pass easily. The tests must be studied for, as there is a lot of material. He will call on you in class, even if you don't have your hand up, so be prepared. Overall great teacher though!

Adam is a great professor. Not only did he give provide good detail in the subject of the class, but he also has a lot of knowledge to share. If you have any troubles, he is easy going with appointments and very helpful! I would recommend taking any of his classes.

Adam is very good looking! More importantly he's passionate for the subject & shares that excitement with students during class. Reading (due BEFORE each class) can be hard to understand, but the follow up discussions in class will provide clarity. Calls on everyone, tries to get every student to speak up in class. Laid back, funny, smart.

I thoroughly enjoyed Adam. Though the 2-hour long class sucks, he always gives you a 10 minute break halfway through. I would keep the syllabus taped to your forehead because it is going to have EVERYTHING you need. DONT forget to read, DONT forget about the online tests, and DONT forget about the writing assessments and all will be fine

His class is really hard to pass, He's not clear during his lectures. Every day is the same a long and a boring class. Adam also has that "cool" attitude but he's not cool at all.

He is really hard. His tests are very detailed and timed. He tends to act like you are an idiot and know nothing.

Adam was a very funny teacher. He made class interesting and easier to understand with funny ways of explaining things. 3 tests. 3 short papers. Reading the book is a must. Overall very great teacher. I would recommend to anyone. Easy A if you do the work. Optional Final.

I took Psychology 201 and am taking 202 from Adam right now. He's a great teacher, very passionate about what he's teaching and is very accommodating to students who need it. He really drew out my passion for the subject. I wish I could take 239 with him! Awesome classes, awesome teacher! I would highly recommend taking a class of his if you can!

This class was okay. He likes class participation so be prepared to raise your hand or simply you'll be called on. Very long lectures. Sometimes its too much information at once. He is funny. Lots and lots of reading. 8 quizzes, 3 tests and a optional final. Do your work, show up to class and perform well on the tests and you should be fine.

This was a good class. He's a great professor who obviously has passion for what he does. I'm one of those students who does all my work and shows up everyday but doesn't raise my hand- he WILL call on you because he believes in his each of his students. Overall great class. Come to class, participate and do the readings assigned.

I had taken 201 and was completely unprepared for this class (most likely because of the teacher I had but I'm not blaming her) but none the less he is a very fair grader and loves what he teaches I cannot complain about his class. Oh and if you're shy, he WILL make you talk so if that's not your thing I wouldn't recommend.

I took this class because its a requirement for the program I am applying for and I loved my previous PSY201 and PSY202, not so much the case with this class. He has 4 tests and 1 final (drops the lowest test) and they are all 75 questions and timed, plus 3 chapter quizzes a week. The discussions are minimal and the bulk of your grade is tests.

Would take again

Adam was a good teacher. If you don't show up you won't pass, you get points for showing up. His tests are all multiple choice and timed. Don't be think because it's multiple choice that it's easy, it's not. You have to study and keep up on all reading! He replies quickly to email even weekends, but don't expect a great response to your question
