I took online abnormal psych with Mrs. Crisp and I thought that class was very nicely laid out/constructed. Her quizzes and tests both came straight from the book (I didn't see a lot of trick questions, you just need to be a thorough reader). Apart from tests/quizzes, you have discussion questions and 2 replies which are pretty straight forward.

Mrs. Crisps online Psych class was straightforward and easy. A weekly discussion post, 2 peer responses, and a quiz are the bulk of your written work + your textbook is free. No zooms or lectures, more of a self taught course. As long as you try in this class, you should get a good grade. Very kind, understanding, and more than fair.

Mrs. Crisp's class is an excellent Intro to Psychology class! There is a bit of reading and note-taking, but she provides lots of resources to help you understand the material more. Weekly quiz and discussion post with two peer replies. She is understanding and responsive when you need help. Definitely take her class, just make sure you do the work

Everything is easy to follow, provides a free link to the textbook and attaches links for you already. Straight to the point. The thing you really need to work on is your discussion posts. Other than that, fair grader provides good feedback and responds quickly!

Great Professor!! She uses an online textbook (16 Chapters). 1 discussion (350-500 words) and 2 responses per chapter due weekly. Quiz for each chapter (4 lowest dropped). 4 Exams total (Midterm (Ch 1-7) and Final (Ch 1-16)). Beware of the 3-5 page final paper at the end of the semester. READ THE CHAPTERS!!! LOTS OF READING!!! Non-proctored course.

A discussion post and quiz were due every week. Both can be done under an hour combined. If you look at the week's material, both are very easy. She responds to emails quickly and really wants you to succeed. Take PSYC1101 with her!

Honestly, the quizzes and tests are easy and I got good grades in her class. The worst thing about this class is the extreme amount of writing every week and a 3-5 page essay at the end of the semester worth 100 points. If you don't enjoy writing long essays, I don't recommend taking her class. Overall, very good instructor just a lot of writing.

Quizzes and tests were simple due to being open book, (even the final.) A lot of writing is required for this class( weekly discussion posts), including a 3-5 page paper at the end of the semester. She was a great professor, was quick to respond, and truly wants you to succeed.

While the class has a solid amount of homework, as long as you pay attention to instructions and read what you're supposed to, you should pass with an A. She also gives opportunities to submit late work up to a certain point and actually provides feedback on grades and discussion posts.

You have to read the chapter and then write an essay on it weekly, you have to do 2 "substantive" peer reviews flexible deadline . she does pile up the work like before spring break she gave us two essays to write instead of one. It was easy enough to make sure you weren't late on the final essay as she is not flexible (learned from experience).

Crisp didn't really do much as far as teaching, it was mostly just reading the textbooks and answering prompts. She's pretty particular about how she wants them done (5 paragraphs for each one). Every week you must complete a discussion post, two peer responses, and a quiz. Her class isn't hard, but it is aggravating work.

I am an online dual enrollment student and this was my first class. You do teach yourself for the most part, I just took notes from the book and did the quizzes. There were Discussions for every chapter and 3 exams. This class was easier than any of my high school classes. Mrs.Crisp responded almost immediately and helped whenever I asked. 10/10.

Took PSYC 1101 online with Professor Crisp over the summer. For every chapter, there's a quiz and a discussion post that you have to write and reply. Overall, nothing too surprising from the course and Professor Crisp is a really nice person, definitely would recommend if you're looking to take PSYC 1101 or just a gen ed.

Psych 1101 with this professor is a breeze. The open-book quizzes and tests are easy, and the weekly discussion posts can be done quickly. unstuck AI is a great study tool alongside the free textbook provided. Take this class!
