Professor Chapman is the best psychology teacher. Her notes are clear and concise and she covers the focal points of all quizzes and tests. She does not do powerpoint presentations, but she does provide an excellent study guide. Before each test she tells everyone what they need to study. If you do not get an A, you did not apply yourself.
Great Professor! This is the best teacher to have for an introductory course in psychology. She's willing to help you do your best, and goes over the concepts that are difficult to understand until you get them. In Dr Chapman's class you don't just learn to take a test and then forget the information, you absorb the information. Now that's learning
so easy and sweet
I LOVE her, she is THE BEST teacher in this field, she gives notes( good ones) If anyone has anything bad to say about her, its because they didnt come to class. She not bad to look at either.
Very fair and helpful teacher. Has the upmost patience. Interesting class too! Very clear.
Fantastic teacher. Really makes everything as easy as possible to get an A! It's hard not to get an A!
Really good teacher. She takes the time to explain a concept until you get it. Not hard to get an A on her class
messed up every students grades attempting to use webct, very unprofessional
She was out of contact with students for weeks at a time...did not reply to posts or emails. We never received many of our assignments because of problems in her personal life and her inability to use WebCT or simply get someone to help her with it. As stated below, she was extremely unprofessional.
I attend UMBC now, but I just wanted to say that Professor Chapman is still one of the best professors I've ever had. A year and a half after taking her class, I still retain most of what I learned. Her teaching methods are wonderful- and I've adopted the study methodologies from Psyc and apply them to my other classes w/ success. Thanks so much!
She is an AWESOME professor. Learning the material is very easy because she takes the time to throughly explain the material. Extra credit oppertunities are plentiful!
Took class online. Was a easy class, but alot of busy work involved. She is very unattentive to her online students. She only checks WebCT once a month. Takes forever to get your grades. But overall I'd take her class again it's easy enough so you don't really need a attentive prof. If you take her just pray you don't need help b/c it's unavaiable
Took her online class, her new last name is Diop. She is NEVER online, ever. If you need help, you're on your own. The class is easy as long as you are able to teach everything to yourself. She takes forever (if at all) to grade anything. USELESS!! I can't believe CCBC pays her to "teach" this class. Actually grades your review of her class.
Review for online class. Prof Diop was NEVER online aside from the first 6 days, then she vanished. Didn't return anything students handed in past the 1st week. Never responded to emails, had zero interest in her online class. Many students were extremely frustrated with her. She shouldn't commit to an online class if she can't even log on! BOO!!
I REALLY LIKED THIS TEACHER. SHE WAS VERY ORGANIZED AND CLEAR.
Really easy. Just the way I like it. I took the online class, very helpful when asked questions.
The worst teacher ever. After every semester she will tell the class she wished she could have spent more time with the class. Very unprofessional, and never grade your assignment till after the final. She should not be a teacher at all...
WHat a joke. Steer clear from this excuse of a teacher.
Dr. Diop is the BEST psychology teacher I have ever had!! I hated psychology until I had this teacher! She taught SO SO well- I end up loving this stuff! I wish we could make a replica of her!!
I am taking her online class and I love her. She answers questions in a timely manner. She gives u all the assignments and dates that they are due on the first day of class so you can move at your own pace. She grades fair, she just likes to see that you have completed the assignment and have followed directions. DEF recommend her to my friends!
This teacher took forever to give back graded assignments. But otherwise a good teacher. She is easy and gives you all your due dates at the beginning of the semester allowing you to pace yourself.
Professor Diop is one of the best teachers I've had. She brought her powerpoints printed out for the students and made her students involved with the class by encouraging us to ask questions. I wish that I could have a teacher like this for all of my classes.
She is great! Brings PPTs to class printed for you. Gives lots of help in class. Loves discussion!
Looks like she shouldn't be facilitating an online class. The semester ends on Saturday and with the exception of the automatically graded tests, I only have 1 grade back. I received this grade in late April and it was for the first assignment due. Extremely frustrating
Dr. D is a great professor! Anyone who doesn't like her MUST be really ignorant. PLEASE Rake her class she is wonderful!!!!!
I took this as my 1st online course in the Fall 2009 not knowing what to expect. Dr. Diop is a good professor, attentive, answered my questions/problems I had. The course requires a lot of reading (you read the entire book), there were chapter reviews & exams. If you study the words for each chapter & used the review sheets you will pass the exam.
Dr. D is a great professor i had her for online Psyc 101 and it wasnt hard at all she worked with you
Excellent prof. I took her online class and it was organized and direction were very clear. She is willing to help and overall the class was great.
awesome teacher probably the best i have had,...deff take her!!!!!!!!!!!!! you'll get a good grade and learn something at the same time shes really laid back as well.
THE BEST! Dr. D ~ online class was GREAT! Everything is online, so you can complete the course at your pace! Extra Quizzes and Exams are straight from the text - there was no surprises! This course was as easy at it gets! Everything open book, quizzes, mid-term, and final! Dr. D was helpful when needed! She gets an A+++
She was very clear in what she expected out of us as students. I took her psych 101 class in the winter semester (4 weeks) and it was A LOTTTTTT of work. She does not give short cuts and expects a lot out of you. She did offer extra credit. I had to put A LOT of work and effort to do well in her class.
Excellent online class for the "independent learner". (If you need someone to hold your hand all the way through the semester, take something else.) The content was very interesting in my opinion. The work is plentiful but extremely easy if you know how to read. All of the assignments are pre-posted so you can complete them at your own pace (pre-due date). The quizzes are open book... which helped me to master and retain the content. Dr. Diop is great!
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!! EASY A
This is an easy A class if you can stand sitting through it. She gets off topic sooo easily and reads her powper points word for word... stopped going, will probably re-take this class online. If you're dedicated to going to class even when you're annoyed this is for you.
I took this class online. All material was available from the start, allowing you to work ahead as time permitted. The teacher responded quickly to emails and was willing to help students. There was a lot of work involved but it wasn't difficult. Highly recommended.
Not an easy A. Easy A if you study and do her work. She is AWESOME!! I took her 101 and 101 and many of my 101 classmates did the same. She is so good, I recommend her to EVERYONE!!!
I love Diop, I have taken 3 classes from her, 2 in classroom and 1 online. She makes the information fun and her work is pretty easy if you stay attentive
avoid at all cost
Uses powerpoints and follows directly from the textbook. Powerpoints outline exactly what will be on the exams. She uses bonus questions as well for all of the exams except for the final. Know the textbook and the class is easy.
Easy A.....extremely boring to sit through but she makes the class so easy to pass with all of her extra credit and easy going attitude. Would not take her again she is boring.
Very good teacher. besides going to class and taking tests, everything is on blackboard. She explains everything very well and is very willing to help. She provides lots of extra credit. Very easy to pass if you pay attention, study, and do the work.
Very easy class. A lot of extra credit is offered too. Nice teacher. All powerpoints are available on blackboard too, so if you're one to miss class a lot, that's awesome. She also gives you examples of all assignments she wants you to complete, so you know exactly what to do. Easy, Easy A
I am taking an online class of hers and it is great. The class is easy if you actually read the book, no trick questions or hidden assignments.
The notes are from her slides, so look over them. There's not a lot of slides for each chapter, which makes it much easier. Her tests were multiple choice. She makes the content very easy to understand by explaining it in depth. She's also funny and very helpful. She's lenient with late assignments, but still do your best to turn them in on time.
Very organized class (online)! Stuck with schedule and provided extra credit! Quick to get back when contacting.
Great Teacher. Great Class. Take!
She's great, show up, read PowerPoint's, and use blackboard. Easy A or B.
As long as you pay attention to power points its an easy a or b, lots of opportunities to raise grade (participation/bonus)
Loved the class! Professor Diop is so nice and helpful. She always helped me with any problems I had within blackboard or assignments. Definitely recommend to take her class !
Powerpoints and class discussion helped to absorb the most important information from each chapter. Assignments were clear, as were their due dates. There were plenty of opportunities to gain extra credit, but students should never slack or these opportunities will be wasted!
Prof. Diop was a very understanding and organized instructor. She treats everybody fairly.She provides a powerpoint so a student can easily study from it. She also gives a lot of extra credits BUT don't take it for granted. Do her extra creds, attend class reg., and STUDY!
Professor Diop is the best in her field.she is very helpful, she knows Her job. She will make you want to know more. She teaches in a very interesting way. She is very encouraging , she wants he students to learn and succeed.
She is so quick to get back to you. She offers plenty of extra credit opportunities. The syllabus has everything mapped out beautifully. She is very understanding about the outside world getting in the way sometimes. The work can be difficult, but as long as you do the reading you should be fine. If you ever need help she is just an email away!
Dr. Diop is an EXCELLENT Professor. I took this course his past spring. The only drawback was she took several months to grade the assignments. Her syllabus was very informative. The assignments were well written & easy to follow. She gave several extra credit assignments. This was an easy A as long as you did the readings & the assignments!!!
I loved this class! Everything was explained in detail. Read the text and get an easy A! The teacher did not grade work until the end of the class but she was easy on grading. If there were any issues you could email or text her. I look forword to taking another class with her.
She is an excellent professor. I would take her again. She makes the class easy because it is understandable and relates to life.
Dr. Diop is an amazing professor to take if you enjoy clear instructions for assignments and being able to work through assignments with little restrictions. Her wording on the research project regarding group work wasn't explained thoroughly, but it wouldn't make a huge impact to your grade. Follow the rubrics and do the work, and get an "A".
I took Dr. D for a winter semester online & she was by far the best Psychology professor I've ever had online. She was very clear about assignments & due dates. She went along with the syllabus the entire time. I definitely wish I could've taken this class with her in a face to face setting. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Dr. D is one of the best psyc. professors she's friendly and funny. All of lessons are power points on Blackboard. In class she teaches off the power points but there's always a discussion. And if you have a question she's really good at answering it in a way that's easy to understand. If you fail her class you either didn't try or didn't show up.
This was my first online class and in fact I loved it. She is amazing and helpful. If anyone fails her class it's because they want to fail. Would take her whenever.
She's okay. She seems to be more interested in forming relationships with her students rather than teaching. All she does is listen to people's personal stories rather then spend time going over material. You'll have to study for tests and she gives a lot of work. I got an A, but I self-taught. Didn't listen to anything she said. Use the book.
LOVE Dr.D, This is the second course I've taken with her. Her classes are very organized and easy to navigate. She is very helpful and understanding with things come up. I highly recommend her! I definitely recommend taking her! Easy A
I absolutely loved Dr. D! She was always available whenever there was a question or problem. Her online class was easy to follow and detailed study material was provided. She was super understanding and I am looking forward to taking another psyc class with her in the summer session.
DR. D is a amazing person, and professor, she's helpful, and generally cares for her students success.
This teacher is awesome. She provides A LOT of information but it is very detailed and very specific as to where to find the assignments. Profess is a doctor! She provides lots of extra credit in addition to weekly discussions.
Dr. D is among the few excellent psych professor in CCBC. I love his style of teaching, very detailed and organized. And yes she gives extra credit.
Her lectures are very easy and simple to understand. I got an A and did not use the book. All I studied were her GREAT POWERPOINTS!! Highly recommend this teacher. Nice and friendly. You do have to do volunteer hours and work in a group but it is fun and a great experience. I volunteered at the daycare in CCBC Catonsville. Offers extra credit!
Attended her 5 week summer class. It was open notes for every exam. Once you get the hang of how she outlines exams, you will ace everyone. I would highly recommend this teacher!
I took her 5 week summer class online. There were 4 tests that were open-note and the answers are right from the book. Weekly assignments were easy. There was one research paper but it wasn't bad. She gives extra credit quizzes. As long as you get the work done, I can't see how anyone gets less than an A.
Dr. D really cares and will respond to emails. I took this class online for winter and it was an easy A, plus she gives multiple choice for tests and exams. Gives hours for the tests but get ready to read. One research paper and you can work in groups "awesome". You won't be mad. Lateirra
Awesome professor! She really worked with you. Even though I took an online course, this professor worked with me because I kept in touch and up to date. She is very understanding and down to earth. Coursework was pretty simple that you did't really need the textbook. There actually was an online textbook provided for free!
This is a hardest teacher I have met in CCBC, she doesn't give you chance to write assignment if you skip one. She asked me to communicate with her if I have question, but she didn't respond my message or even return my calls. don't take her if you want to pass.
This is my second time having Dr. D (what she allows students to call her) as a professor. She gives you pretty easy and simple assignments. Test are open book and notebook! Very understanding of students having an outside life, she gives great feedback and actually communicate. I would highly recommend taking her online or face-to-face.
Professor Diop gives really good feedback on every assignment, and is caring. She is not super accessible outside of class, but all assignments are easy and have clear directions. She is a really good choice!!
Terrible professor, really try to give you busy work and people who like her is because of an easy A. Didn't learn anything more then what is taught in the book.
Easy A. This professor does not know much; so, its an easy A. You do not learn ANYTHING in her class. She is a perfect fit for a community college.
My online course was very well organized and laid out. I knew my expectations from the start, and Dr. Diop is always willing to help. The two exams were open notes, and the assignments were fun and engaging. Take her if you can!
Prof Diop beautifully laid out this online course. You knew what unit to study which week and what was due that week. I didn't get the book and passed with an A. There are PowerPoints and for my class both the midterm and the final were open note/book (I suggest printing out the unit reviews, you'll thank me later). Easy A. Just do the work. :)
Took her multicultural psych class in 2018. Probably one of the best psych professors at CCBC. Take her if you want an easy A!
Professor Diop takes her precious time with grading assignments. She is also long-winded when it comes to giving feedback. I would find myself getting pretty annoyed sometimes with the material. Her powerpoints are all over the place. The test answers some of the time is not found in the powerpoints that she provides (which is annoying).
Professor Diop does not grade work in a timely manner, it almost feels as though you are left in the dust about the work you've completed. She waited until the very last week to grade my work. Also, she does make you work for your grade. As an online class there was little to no communication whatsoever. The feedback she gives isn't the best too.
I just finished her Psych 101 class for Fall 2020 and Professor Diop is an amazing professor!! There is quite a bit of work. But overall she's a generous grader, and lenient with her policies (Extra credit, Re-dos, and Open Note tests are given). She also posts PowerPoints for every chapter.
I enjoyed taking this class for spring semester. Profess. Diop was amazing! Yes, you do have to work but if you focus and get everything done on time; there is no way you can fail. She answers your emails in a timely matter and her grading criteria was understandable. If you do what is expected, you will not have any issues. Will recommend!
I took her class all online (7 weeks) and it was pretty easy. She's very organized and the course schedule is easy to access/navigate. She always had reminders every week for upcoming assignments or exams. If you're taking a 7-week course with her then definitely check the syllabus and stay on track because work/reading will catch up w/ you.
Dr. Diop is an awesome professor! While I completed PSYC 101 asynchronously and in 7 weeks, I feel as if I had done really well in the course because of the way Dr. Diop structured it. When our former professor dropped the course and Dr. Diop took over she added so many extra credit opportunities for us and truly allowed us to succeed in her class.
Dr. Diop cares about her students' grades and gave us tons of extra credit this past 1/2-semester in addition to the extra credit that a different professor had before Dr. Diop took over. This gave us an opportunity to boost our grade if we didn't do well. Tests are also open note so this helps a lot with workload & studying! Take Dr. Diop, easy A!
She takes forever to grade assignments and by the time you get your grades, the class is almost over and there is nothing that can be done about it. I received a 0% on a paper over minor details and when I reached out for support, she was extremely unhelpful. She makes student rate her 5 starts throughout the class before grading assignments. 0/10
The course is well organized and there are many chances for extra credit. Each assignment is spaced out reasonably, giving time to do them, and taking stress off. She replies fast to emails and accommodates to extensions. She's a chill online prof, take her.
Very easy class. Each module consisted of a 50 pt. exam review, a discussion post (with one reply), and an exam. The exams (including the final) are all open note with a respondus browser and includes easy multiple choice questions. In my class there was up to 25 extra credit points in the form of true/false quizzes.
