Prof. Adam is a good prof. He goes by the powerpoint presentations more than the book. he is very helpfull, gives extra credits and the quizzes are not hard well maybe a little bit tricky but overall he is a good prof. I recommend you take him
There is a quiz every week, but you can drop 3, they count for 40%. There is a midterm and a final,they count for 50%. The other 10% is from attendance. The class overall is not that easy but I truly loved the professor. Super nice guy and he is eager to teach.
I love prof Ventura! He is nice, helpful and funny. You do have a quiz every week, a midterm and final. No papaers! You also have chances to get extra credit and drop the lowest 3 quiz grades. I enjoyed his class very much and he's cute! :)
awesome teacher. he really goes out of his way for his students. need to study and class mandatory but if interested in behavioral analysis or working with people on the autism spectrum, he's the teacher to pick!
Great professor. Keeps you studying for the whole semester with his weekly quizzes(quizzes are easy if you go to class and study). He always gives exam reviews and answers all your questions.
Really sweet guy, and one of the best looking teachers at FIU
He is an AWESOME professor, he explains things really well and makes it very easy to understand with his lectures, if you have difficulty all you have to do is ask him. He is very knowledgeable and dedicated. I loved his class and learned a lot. He makes sure you are prepared for the tests and quizzes. Plus he is very cute!
He's a great teacher. In this class you will actually learn, he takes pride in teaching this subject. Quiz every week so be ready to study study study! Guaranteed A or B, if you study.
Excellent proffessor. Teaches his subject and enjoys it. Is incredibly helpful and will answer any question you throw at him. READ the assignment, SHOW UP for class, and ASK the questions, its the only way.
He is an amazing teacher.. he's young and relates material to everyday life. keeps class interesting. (jokes) If you go to class, pay attentoin and take notes, Easy A and you will learn alot! HIGHLY RECOMMEND TAKING HIS CLASS! his classes are actually fun, he gets everyone involved.
He's an alright professor. I must say that he is knowledgeable in this specific area. He gives a quiz every week which aren't that easy. His tests are a bit tricky. I would consider taking his class, but just be prepared.
GREAT class! Prof.Ventura is very cute & knowledgeable. He helps everyone (he will go over and over the material until everyone understands it & puts in office hours) Makes the subject fun with examples everyone can relate to. It's very important to make it to every class since you must take notes, read the book, and have a test every week.
He is a good teacher, clear, thorough. Summer A, fast paced, 4 quizes, 2 tests. Tests/quizes are a bit tricky, you will need to read the book and slides and understand the material real well. Only issue is that he is a bit narcissistic, loves attention, specially from an annoying group of girls, which you will probably encounter
Great teacher, too class in summer A- probably would've been better during spring or fall. Within the 6 week period there isn't much time to fully go over things so we ran out of time often and spent all class typing/writing notes.. Tests are easy if you study. Quizzes are easy too-- but only if you study. If not good luck :/
He's really clear in the lecture. The tests were difficult but I believe it was due to the fact I took it in the summer. Study the notes and you should be fine
One of the best professors I have had! He is very good to his students by giving reviews before every exam and quiz; and has no problem spending time answering questions. His lectures are clear and he makes the class very interesting, especially with his humor. He's very nice on the eyes as well :)
Very solid professor, very interesting, and helpful. He should be a stand up comedian, and a successful one at that. The girls love him. His tests may be tricky at times, but that shouldn't stop anyone from taking his class and getting an A. Post our final grades!!
Prof. Ventura's class is not easy but you will learn a lot. He explains material clearly (as much as possible, sometime ran out of time). Ask a lot of questions, he likes that. You need to study a lot (mostly from his PPS),and take notes but he will review before exams/quizes. If u don't go to class u will fail!
Prof Ventura is extremely funny and laidback. He has a passion for Behavioral Analysis and expresses it in his lectures and description of the job. Before I entered this class I thought it was going to be boring. To my suprise, this turned out to me the most interesting psych class I've ever taken.
I love this professor. He was helpful, funny, and laidback. He makes things clear and is up to you to go to class and read the book. I loved him. Funny and very very nice.
hes a great teacher. def recommend him he explains things thoroughly and will answer any questions. he makes the class light and gives humor to an otherwise dull subject you do have to be present for lectures tho, the book can be a diffcult read but overall TAKE HIM!
Outstanding instructor!! This was my first class at FIU and I was extremely satisfied with his teaching method. Knows the subject very well for such a young professor.
Poor help during and after quizes. No clarification before mid-term on uncleared items from those quizes which are going to be on mid-term test.We hope Mr. Ventura takes a little time to seat with students and really clarify questions before final exam.
He reads from the power points and blazes through them quickly. He will stop and answer questions but doesn't really offer great examples and can leave you hanging sometimes. His tests can be hard but he does an AWESOME review right before the tests. You have to attend his lectures to pass, the book is okay but was difficult to follow sometimes.
The professor knows the subject well, however, his teaching method is not very helpful; on one class he would go over the material quickly and the other class he administers a quiz. his quizzes are very ambiguous and unclear. when asked a question, his answers are unclear and most of the times not helpful. but if you put the effort youll pass.
Very smart guy but he flew through the class one day of the week and gave a test the other day of class. Tests seemed to concentrate on exactly the things he spent the least time on in class, questions had more than one possible answer in many cases and tests were never reviewed so that we could correct wrong answers.
I took him for EAB Principles & Theories and he's awesome. The subject is hard but he makes every effort to make it easy and keep you entertained. You must study & attend class.
study every week and you will end up with an A. Prof Ventura is young and encourages you to do well. Try to take him in the fall or in spring, if you take him in the summer it may be overwhelming.
He is a great guy but as a teacher he is not very helpfull. He does not go over the test so you can correct your mistakes, infact he does not even hand you back the test to see what you got wrong. He seems to be more interested in his TA's present/past love life & his dating than class. His power point are good but he goes thru too fast.
Read the chapter before class! He reads over his powerpoint presentation word by word (which by the way, you do not get copies of. He Goes over it way too fast.
This teacher has a major narcissism issue. He flies through powerpoints & give a quiz every week so READ THE CHAPTER. Don't come to class expecting to be amused by his experiences in Behavior or anything. It's really a boring class and the book is what teaches you.
Not bad at all. He just doesn't give easy grades, he expects you to come prepped up like read the book before arriving to class. His quizes are fair, the exams are a bit difficult though.
I like this class. His very funny but the truth is that his teaching methods are not the best. =/
He does not teach, just reads from slides. It's unfortunate because the guy does know his stuff. He uses profanity inappropriately. Im not judging, but there is a time and a place for those sorts of things. EGO, EGO, EGO! Do not take his class! Chose another prof! Believe me, he is not what the others are portraying.
Do not like his teaching methods at all. He basically reads off his ppts. Interesting subject, and he is extremely knowledgeable about it, but waste of class time because you don't even have time to write notes about it. You NEED the book, or else you will fail, quiz every week (more like test, 30ish questions)and sometimes it's 2 chapters per week
Where to begin? Ok, he knows his stuff, but the truth is, he's full of it. He has MAJOR EGO problems, seems to be way more interested in Monday Night Football and his Love Life than actually teaching this class...and you can NOTICE IT. Quiz every week. Goes through power points WAY too fast and he doesn't seem to care about it. So so teacher.
Prof. Ventura went out of his way to help me I had a personal tragedy this semester and had to drop the class but he went above and beyond to try to keep me in his class by tragedy I mean death in my family in my book he is a stand up guy and top notch teacher he really does care!
You have to go to class in order to get the notes. 1 open book test. notes every monday, quiz every wednesday (or whatever days you have). he's kind of an ass, think's he's all that. never responded to my emails. i couldn't wait until this class was over.
Prof Ventura knows his stuff but isnt very good at relaying it to the class. he is very cocky and made it very clear that he would rather be out on a date or watching monday night football than lecturing students. Quiz every week, midterm and a final. Make sure you attend class because he doesnt post his notes online! STUDY hard and youll do fine.
Very knowledgeable, BUT he speeds through his Powerpoints because there's "Monday Night Football" on. Always put your student ID number and bubble it in, or else he'll fail you (almost happened to me)!!! Attendance isn't mandatory, he eventually posted the PPT's (right before the midterm/final). Read the book!!
Very helpful and knows what he is talking about. I enjoyed learning in his class. Great teacher. There's nothing bad about his class, enjoyed every minute of it.
This class really worked well with tight schedules as it was clear that all test were on Wednesday and lectures on Monday. He explained the material very clearly and very professionally. Good teacher.
Awesome Professor! Highly recommend!! If you have the choice, pick him! I will take him again if possible. He makes the class fun and entertaining and uses real-world examples when explaining the material which helps you remember for the exam/quizzes. He is helpful and will explain as many times as necessary to help you understand the material.
He’s knowledgeable,has the experience so it’s not merely theory that he teaches you.He doesn’t mind setting various examples until you understand the concept, funny guy. There’s a weekly quiz +mid-term & final;straight from the power points&book.Read each CH prior to taking the quizzes & you’ll do well.Here’s another plus: he’s easy on the eyes =)
He knows his stuff. He blows through a lot of material in a short period of time. He says the book is necessary, but it really isn't. He makes you want to become a Behavior Analyst. Watch out or he'll be making fun of you all semester. PPTs are a must to pass the WEEKLY quizzes (you read right!!!) and exams.
Very interesting class, he knows his field. Made lots of real life comparisons to facilitate learning. Studying is important, but he provides a great study review before each exam. Highly recommend taking his class.
Study the SAFMEDS!!! There is a weekly quiz and 2 tests. He is a great professor, and is very passionate about his field! He will explain anything/everything in great detail just ask. He is very funny and made the class interesting. My only complaint is how long he took to post our grades!!!
I had him for two classes, awesome prof! His pp are all you need to pass the class but you must take pics during class cause he will not post them. His exams are not hard and he makes the class super interesting!
He is pretty good! He definitely keeps you entertained in class, and "tries" to be funny. His exams are not tough, if you study. His power points are basically what you need to know, but he does not post them so take good notes/pics!! Overall, he is an awesome professor :)
He likes what he does and it shows. Even though attendance is not mandatory , I highly recommend that you attend to his class because you will not get his Power Points otherwise. He's funny and fair and makes the class interesting .He seems hyperactive too HA! maybe M&M and Sunkist toxicity ? could be :)
attendance is not mandatory but i would suggest going because he knows his stuff.test are extremely fair, if you read the book and follow the study guide given by the professor you will get an A. Professor is helpful. i recommend :)
He makes class very interesting. Jokes all the time. Quizzes are fair. If you study the powerpoints and the read the book, you will do fine. FBA was really long. Get ready to work hard!!..OVERALL he is a great prof.
The prof was really help although the class is not easy but he made it very interesting and he is very funny, we had to do a group project at the last minutes my partner dropped out of the class, he extended it for me. I learned more from his class, than I did wit all EAB Classes combined. study the ppt and the read the book, you will do great.
He's a cool guy but he kinda tries too hard. The book is a must. Bring your phone to class to take pics of the slides cause there is no way you'll have enough time to type the notes and he doesn't post the them online before the weekly quizzes worth 50% of your grade. Midterm and final worth 25% ea. I learned the material pretty much all on my own.
This class is challenging, you have to work hard to get an A! The Professor is very knowledgeable, high energy, funny, and really engages his students in the lectures.He encourages his students to ask questions about the material either after class or via email, also very generous with extra credit.Take this class you will learn so much!
Amazing! He is very engaging in class. His humor and way of teaching keep you attentive, you won't really drift,again he's very engaging. Took him Mon.& Wed., we had lecture Mon. and quiz Wed. Not much time to study if you are taking multiple classes but I loved it b/c the material remained fresh. There is a midterm and final. Def. recommend him!!
Mr. Ventura is very energetic, has a great sense of humor and makes the class very interesting. He is very clear with his explanations during his lectures and you can tell he loves teaching this stuff... highly recommend him, you'll end up liking BA as much as he does lol. :) P.s. some of the questions on the weekly quizzes are a bit off.
This professor was awesome!!! He explains the material very well and gives relevant examples. His grading scale is very fair and gives extra credit to make up for lowest grade! great class!!! very informative and smart.
This guy was pretty funny. Did his best to make the class interesting and enjoyable. Each quiz was given with a study guide and so were the midterms. Though sometimes he could be a bit unclear. Definitely a good professor to take this class with.
Lecture: Weds Quizzes: Mondays. Mid-Term & Final. Take ur phone to take pics of slides & record his reviews. Fun prof. who loves what he teaches but quizzes/tests are not easy. U have to work hard/read/attend class to pass. He makes the class interesting, makes u laugh & gives u great examples for the material given but his class is not the easiest
Adam makes this class very easy to pass i highly recommend him if you are into getting behavior analysis certified. He will help out a lot.
best professor i've had at FIU. He's hilarious, sometimes goes off on tangents but hes very entertaining so i didnt mind it. his quizzes were easy if you study some questions can be confusing but i still aced them all. the book is actually an easy read. the FBA paper is long so do not procrastinate. overall awesome professor!
Super funny and interesting professor. He makes the content relevant and easy to understand. His lectures are interesting and he really is cute. The quizzes can be tricky and the FBA is long but if you read the book and go to class you'll do fine. I definitely recommend him.
Excellence at its finest! Very intelligent man, with the drive to motivate an audience into loving behavior analysis, and doing your best in his class. Take this class! One of the best professors I've come across at FIU.
Great professor! Although the subject of the class was somewhat boring (even if you had an interest for behavior analysis), he made it interesting and taught with clarity. You need to read and go to class to get the most benefits, as tests are not always very easy. He's pretty funny and very approachable. Definitely recommend him for EAB 3002.
Very interesting course. He makes class fun and not a drag to go to. Plus, he is good looking which makes it better. 10 weekly quizzes, 2 exams. Attendance is not mandatory but it's good to go review for the quizzes. Highly Recommend him and the course
You go to class two days a weeks, one day it's a lecture, the other day there's a quiz. This class requires a lot of studying and interest in the class. But Professor Ventura, makes it interesting and as easy as possible. He always gives a review and extra credit opportunities.
He is a very funny professor that truly has an interest in the subject. Quiz every week, he gives you a review each week. No slides online so you have to take pics because he goes fast. I slacked off but if I would have done review each week I would have an A. You do need to work for it. Great class and he's not to hard on the eyes.
2 Days a week, one day it's a lecture, the other day there's a quiz. This class requires a lot of studying and it is not an easy A. Ventura gives you extra credit and his tests always have a review. Go to class! I am taking him again in the fall.
This professor was good but his lectures are all on power points which he does not list them online, you have to take pics! FBA was super long! and even worst the BSP he doesn't explain much, you pretty much have to do it on your own, Quiz reviews in class only! must go to class! NOT AN EASY CLASS AT ALL! nice professor overall.
I took this professor thinking that his good reviews would reflect his performance in class. He is frequently late and makes a joke out of it. You need to take pictures of all the slides because he doesn't post them online. The only bright side is that he gives a study guide for each quiz. Read the book because his powerpoints can be excessive.
I really liked this professor. You know what you need to do from day one of class. Take pictures of his slides and study them for the tests. Unless you miss class you don't need the book. He's not a hard teacher but if you miss class often you won't pass his class because he gives clear examples about the subject and what falls on the tests.
This class was boring for me. Prof is pretty funny at times, but goes through lectures way too fast. Quizzes every week that are MC, gives reviews (used textbook a lot for reviews), midterm is an FBA, final is a BSP. Both FBA & BSP can be done in groups (trust me, get into a group), you work in the same group for both.
Horrible professor! Takes long to grade tests. Moves quick and you need to take pics of Power Points. Very little man with big ego. I would not take him again! Quiz each week plus midterm and final. He can be confusing at times probably because he's not all together in the head. Do yourself a favor and find another professor...
I don't know why people are complaining about Ventura. He does take a while to input grades, but he's a pretty busy man. If you study the reviews he gives for the quizzes and 2 exams, you'll be fine. He makes you take pictures of his ppts so you have the opportunity to listen and pay attention in lecture, rather than solely focusing on taking notes
This is the second class I have taken with this professor. He is great! There is a lecture and a quiz every week. I admit, he is inconsistent, but that works out for the students. This semester 3 quizzes were either open note or group quizzes. From the extra cred he drops 4 of my lowest quiz grades. Midterm and final are FBA and BSP. great class!
I am in my senior year, and this is the worst class I've taken so far. The topics are interesting, but you will suffer throughout the semester because the professor posts the grades really late, promises extra credit points that never really add to the grades, emails are not respond in time, and some of the topics are not explain by the professor.
Class consists of lecture on 1 day of class and quiz on 2nd day of class (ex. class on Tues. and quiz on Thurs.). Quizzes based on PP's, TAKE PICTURES OF THE POWERPOINTS! He can sometimes get off topic, but overall knows the subject very well. He can be little into himself so if you can't accept that then don't take him, I found it to be funny.
Does take along time to put up grades so it's hard to keep track of how you are doing in the course. Other than that, class is simple. 1 day lecture, 1 day quiz. Unless you miss class you don't need the book. Take pictures of ALL the powerpoints and stay after class for the review and you'll be fine.
Well, he really should hire someone to post the grades for him. We were close to the end of the semester and he hadn't put any grades up since our midterm!!! You know what to expect in the class and it's simple as long as you like to read and work for it. At the end of the day, it's college. It's bound to be hard sometimes.
He is AWESOME. Made me want to look into the Behavioral path in psych. Awesome guy. Level headed, lots of curves and extra points. Wish I could take him all the time.
this professor is so busy trying to come up with jokes that he's forgetting what his job really is. He tries coming up with funny stories to explain certain concepts and just ends up confusing everyone. he's also not there for you when you have a problem. he only cares in being funny. I learned nothing from him and dropped, he's annoying.
The professor is very unorganized. Doesn't do well posting grades. He shows up late to class, has a poor method in handing out exams to prevent cheating, doesn't tell you what you got wrong on the exams. Just overall chaotic technique of teaching. I would NOT take again.
Eh. He was okay. Not the worst professor I had but wouldn't want to take him again. Made me realize that I really hate the behavior side of psych.
Professor Ventura gives everyday examples to help you understand the vocabulary. His classes are based on PowerPoint presentations that summarize what is in the book. If you read the book and go to class, you'll get an A. He takes forever to answer emails. And gives extra credit at the end of the semester.
he was great, funny and inspiring plus hes beyond cute take him and you wont regret it
Great teacher! He was very helpful and his lectures were interesting. He knows how to keep the class engaged. His quizzes and tests are very straightforward.
He is a great professor and knows a lot about the field if you want more insight. If you don't like to show up to class, don't take him because he doesn't post his lectures. Overall great teacher, an easy A and you learn a lot.
As a professor, this man is very educated and very, very good at getting you to understand difficult concepts. He is great with lectures and has really gotten much easier. We had class on Tuesday's and an online quiz on Thursday's. Two group projects that consisted as the midterm and final. You really have to try HARD to fail his class. Easy A.
He's funny and his test and quizzes are easy. However, he goes through his slides way too quickly, takes a long time to post grades, has a lot of online technical errors and his SafMed quizzes are annoying and tedious. You only have 60 seconds to answer 20 vocab questions. He claims it's learning, but you'll forget the words soon afterwards.
Professor Ventura is the best, he makes you show up for class because he makes his lectures quick and painless. Powepoints aren't posted online but he lets you take pictures of them. You have weekly tests and those are straight from the lecture and Powepoints, definitely would take again.
Adam is a really nice guy, funny and knows his stuff. He can be a little disorganized but don't get scared his lecture are very clear and understandable. He goes really fast that's is true but he also lets you takes pictures of the PP. Also before each test he post the PP on BB study those for the test and pay attention in class you should be fine!
If you attend class and take careful notes/pictures powerpoints you will be good to go. Make sure you speak up in class because he gives extra credit all the time for right answers. The book helps a lot too.
Ventura is a good professor, he might be messy sometime but his classes are very easy. Attendance not mandatory, show up one day to get pictures of the PP because he doesnt sent it and next class u got an online quiz from PP. safemedz every week, and a semester long project in group he explain it very clear. Hard to reach sometimes but worth taking
Prof. V is truly inspiring and real. During his lectures, he provides real-life examples that help understand the material so well. He likes and gives extra credit for participating during class, so make sure to read the material ahead so you know what he's talking about. Weekly quizzes, mid-term and final.
He is not challenging at all, every quiz was online, he puts the lectures in blackboard, he ask for 2 projects I doubt he read, I learned nothing. If you want an easy A take him! If you want to learn something Don't take him. Although he knows a lot, you don't need to open the book to pass. IF YOU TAKE HIM PLEASE DON'T GET THE BOOK!
Professor Ventura is inspirational in his field, very knowledgeable, and he'll provide you with entertaining lectures. Weekly quizzes but it's all online so you have to try to actually fail this class. I wish he would take better advantage of class time, he rushes and class will last 20 mins. Still, he'll make sure to help you if you ask. Sweet guy
He is very knowledgeable on everything that he talks about. He is very well informed on the field and provides great resources and tools for those that are looking into working in the field in the future. He barely shows up to class, is usually late, and doesn't really teach much... I mean if you want an easy A, he would be a good choice.
Everyone has a "best teacher ever" in mind, but this one takes the cake! TAKE THIS PROFESSOR! Attendance is not necessary but he makes it where you want to come to class! Lectures are the most interesting. Quiz every week, midterm and final (study guides for both & their online!). If you do the reading and pay attention to slides. EASY A+!
Behavior Analysis is not my thing. However, this class has been the easiest A I have ever received. There's a vocab quiz every week, a regular quiz every week, a midterm, and final. Everything is online. He posted PPts the first day of class and then took them down. MAKE SURE to save them as soon as he posts them. I barely went to class honestly.
Weekly vocabulary quiz and quiz on lecture. Midterm & Final are projects that you can do alone or as a group. Attendance is not mandatory, but he gives extra credit to participants with correct answers during his lectures. DON'T BUY THE BOOK! You don't need it, unless you're going into the field and want to read the material. EASY A, take him.
Lectures are fun , Most quiz info comes from slides in class. He responds in a timely manner and provides opportunity for extra credit. Exams are online and you have 2 hours to complete . There is no way to fail this class. Class was face to face but work and exams were completed online.
Easy class, usual workload. You don't need the book, at all so don't bother (it's expensive). He makes lecture interesting so going to class isn't mandatory but it's not the end of the world.
Probably my favorite professor ever!!! If you come to class you don't have to worry about doing any reading cause his lectures are really in depth and he always answers your questions (during/after class and through email).
As long as you take pictures of the slides (because he does go pretty fast) you will be golden. His lectures are really interesting and he gives real life examples that are usually hilarious. If you participate in discussion he hands out extra credit for correct answers, too. Super easy A if you keep up with everything!
This professor was beyond easy he is very approachable and shows that he wanted his students to pass, There were plenty of opportunities for extra credit. Overall great professor!
This professor is amazing. He is super funny and makes his lectures interesting. He has 2 quizzes a week and often reopens them so people can do better. He has a midterm and a final which are both online. You can't fail this class!
Professor Ventura is a very "straight to the point" type of teacher. I like that because he tells it like it is. His lectures are fun, interesting, and knowledgeable. There is not a dull moment when attending the class.
Very interesting class! Fun professor! Will always learn in this class. Would definitely take it over!
tests every week (pretty easy if you go to class and take notes from slides) mid-term and final a bit hard but if you start early and ask for help, he will help you. He is really nice, but can be a bit intimidating when you give a wrong answer to extra credits in class ��
This professor is amazing. He has 2 quizzes a week and often reopens them so people can do better. He has a midterm and a final which are both online. You can't fail this class!
Professor Ventura is a great guy, very nice and knowledgeable. He has 2 quizzes every week, but they are online and can be easily passed by just looking at the powerpoints he provides in class. Always giving his students information about work opportunities, and offers a few extra credit opportunities as well. Overall great professor.
Best professor at FIU!!!! He really does care, and I learned a lot in his class. I would take him for all my classes if I could!
This class is alot of info and the book is not an easy read but take this course with professor ventura he is great and caring about his students. I wish he taught more courses. Simply amazing!
I took a risk in taking him & it is the best decision ever. There is a midterm, final, 13 quizzes (for each chapter). His quizzes & exam Review helps a lot for the midterm & final. The only thing is that he doesn't post the PPts online which isn't a big deal for me. Make sure to take pictures because the PPts help a lot with the quizzes. Best prof!
Professor Ventura is amazing! he makes ABA simpler to understand with every-day examples. His lectures are great! jokes here and there. If you are interested in the ABA field, take him. He reinforces your interest in the field. The class is composed of a midterm and a final which he reviews.
He is quite funny but also gets lost in his own lectures sometimes and does not really make the material more engaging. I have no doubt he's a professional in his field but I can't recommend his class. Weekly quizzes + open book midterm and final mean it's fairly easy to pass but god is it boring.
Behavior Analysis itself is heavy content, but his examples and interaction with audience makes it not so bad. Very easy-going professor, very laid-back, but very professional.
For me I didnt use the text book. Attendance is not mandatory. Great teacher very caring, easy A honestly. As long as you take pictures of the slides and do the homework. Two exams and both are open book!
Very easy professor for Behavior Analysis. Easy A. Quizzes stem from quizlet. Open notes for final and midter m! Not timed either. Barely used the book too. Class didn't really interest me. If you want an easy A just for the credit, he is the best choice. Quizzes, final and midterm are all online!
He's such a funny professor, he makes sure you have a great time in his class. He gives an online quiz weekly, has a midterm and a final. He's cute too!
I wish professor ventura taught every EAB course! His lectures are amazing. He explains things clearly in a way you can understand and is always willing to help his students. I learned so much from him. quizzes and test but he will give a review. The best EAB professor at FIU.
Professor Ventura is amazing. He is so caring about his students success. Makes the class interesting and engaging even during these difficult times of remote learning. Best professor to take for those going into the behavioral analysis field!
Awesome lectures and very informative. Has a solid passion for what he does and answers questions thoroughly.
Taken remote due to COVID but he truly made it a great experience! Go to lectures and pay attention, if you like to engage he responds to each student!
Enjoyed this class very much. This professor is an amazing analyst
Professor Ventura is the best professor out there. 10/10 would definately recommend.
Professor is caring, very acknowledgeable, and finds a way to explain himself in a way anyone can understand him. If you need help with the class or even in the career, he gets professionals and holds mini seminars for all class to join
REALLY good professor. Zooms are not required but his discussions are super fun and sometimes funny. Easy A class and you will learn a lot.
Weekly quizzes (12), midterm, and tough final. Class is very doable, easy A. You will learn a lot about being a behavior analyst and the field. Invites speakers. Super funny professor. Highly recommends you read the textbook but not required. Does not give powerpoints beforehand. Overall amazing class! He's gucci.
BEST PROF every just quizzes and midterm and they are able to find online I think its nothing else to say definitely looking to see what other courses he teaches
amazing prof quizzes super easy and zoom poll meeting participation grade. the course load was amazing super smooth would highly recommend and take again in another course online or in person WONT REGRET
Professor Ventura is great to take if you want a passable class for credit. We had to do polls during the zoom class and then weekly quizzes which were SO easy. We also had a Midterm and Final and both were easy. I would definitely take him again!
Amazing teacher. Took him during spring 2021 during zoom, attendance mandatory because sometimes he doesn't post powerpoints and he takes polls for attendance. He gives really good and interesting lectures. He might go a little fast but still worth it. No hw, just quizzes (10) and exams (midterm and final). Take him!
Good prof, he knows his stuf. He honestly could better at time management though. Easy class overall!
Attendance not mandatory but uses polls as participation grade so if you miss it or get it wrong, you lose points each class. Overall he is an ok professor, can be nice when he wants to be and knows the material. Don't rely on him to provide classwork material. I suggest you read on your own and take pictures of the ppt for your own notes. 10quizze
Online quiz every week. Open book midterm/final. Very easy class and Mr. Ventura's lectures were really good. Attendance mattered and he was a very nice professor. Knows a lot about his profession in ABA. If you're thinking of becoming an RBT/BCaBA/BCBA, Mr. Ventura will help you!
Thought the semester was going well, he gave plenty of time to complete assignments but if you don't answer correctly on his polls, you dont get the attendance. I had straight A's the whole semester, missed a midterm due to COVID and he gave me a D.
This man is super arrogant and full of himself, I learned nothing because he is not receptive to feedback much less commentary. He only counts your attendance if you get the answer right. You can literally be sitting there for the full meeting, trying to ask him something ( most times won't acknowledge your questions) then not give you the credit.
He's a great professor, he just needs to work on taking the time to break down the material some more. He'll explain but he goes fast even for the explanation. He doesn't allow access to the PowerPoint and again he's really fast even for the lecture... He's not good at replying to his emails it takes a few days. so make sure to ask in person.
Adam Ventura's class was one of my favorites. His lectures are not mandatory, but are super important as he does not post the power points on canvas. He is a chill professor and he really knows his stuff. His lectures were always interesting and engaging.
