This class is extremely hard!!!! He as a teacher is helpful though. He was for the most part very clear about what he wants. the whole entire class is about a paper, but the way he breaks up every assignment to be each part of your paper is helpful. I would recommend him but with the warning the class is hard in general so be prepared.

He takes attendance and gives you extra credit points for coming. His tests are all questions that come from the book but he lectures over his own notes. Most of the classes we would get stuck on one particular subject and he would go off on a tangent about it. The tests are not about anything he talks about. Tests are open bookopen note though.

Professor Weber offers an easy psych 1 class. The grade is only dependent on your tests and one paper that he assigns towards the end of the semester. There is no homework, attendance is not mandatory, and the tests are online. Easy class to get an A in. His lectures are interesting since he knows what he's talking about but it's hard to focus.

Super easy class. Attendance is not mandatory and is for extra credit. Tests were online. No homework. Your grade is based on 4 tests and one really easy paper. Lowest test grade gets dropped at the end of the semester. I'm not a psych major and have little to no interest in psych but he made the class fun.

He is a chill professor, but often got sidetracked during lectures because he felt the need to answer every question even if they weren't on topic. The tests come directly from the book so there is really no need to attend class. In the syllabus he says that you need the 5th edition book, but the 4th worked just fine.

Professor Weber, if this is just an elective for you, it's an easy class. It made psychology boring, it made the class empty, I struggled with this class even if it is easy to pass it since he didn't make any interest in teaching.

This professor will teach you and make you succeed and actually enjoy the class, only thing you need to do is pay attention, his teaching method is easy to understand, and he is always happy to help you understand the subject better. His tests are always well reviewed in class pretest. Don't miss a lecture, it will screw your learning tho.

The professor was very chill and the only assignments were the exams and a research paper at the end of the semester, so it wasn't necessary to attend class unless you want extra credit for attendance. The exam was based on the textbook and the research paper was pretty easy, but a bit time consuming.

Professor Weber had a great understanding and love for psychology, and he designed the class to be easy to pass. That being said, he went off-topic very quickly during lectures, and most of the notes I took were outside of the course on the posted slideshows. I did not need to use my textbook because the slides were directly from the textbook.

Professor Weber perceives himself to be a genius. He would often talk about how resentful he was towards Ivy League schools for rejecting him. This was way off topic. I don't recommend. He would spend all class talking about how he is the closest thing to Albert Einstein.

If you are planning on taking Dr. Weber for Psy 3403, save yourself. He's an awful professor and enjoys students' failure, off-topic in lectures, poor slides, and unorganized. He gives the questions for the test then makes the q's very confusing and includes many questions he mentioned nothing about. Only graded on 6 assignments worth 100 pts.

In the beginning, I really enjoyed Dr. Weber but as time went on he started talking about random things rather than teaching. He does give reviews and lets us know what's on the test but when you haven't even done enough practice or even learn the material, sometimes it's hard to study.

I really Like Dr. Weber the start of the semester, but he started to get worse and worse as they days went on. I personally feel like he does not teach his class the way it should be. He goes off topic every class, he can make you feel stupid for asking questions in class, and he finds it funny when his students are confused and need help. BEWARE!!

Professor Weber is a great person outside of his teaching. As a teacher, he is not the best. He goes off topic on lectures, and majority of the time his study guides do not match his test.

Dr. Weber's a good person outside of class but when it comes to class material he's not clear about what we should expect from content or exams. He's tricky with the material he gives out and there's hardly any assignments besides the exams to make up for your grade. He's not vocal about his expectations yet you still have to be able to meet them.

Dr. Weber is the best Professor to take for 2073, he gives lots of extra credit and will explain anything you need help with outside of class. Class attendance is not taken and homeworks are easy participation. I highly recommend his office hours, he has a great area to explain problems and is very patient when showing you how to figure them out.

Do not take this class if you want to actually learn anything. He knows a lot about the topic, but somehow just expects us to know the same things he does. He has you read an article before class, and then in class he just rewords what the article said. There is very little effort put in on his part and the class is not engaging at all.

Prof Weber is a chill guy. Attendance is not mandatory, and the class is very easy to take without going to lectures. I went one of two days cause I felt bad no one went to his lectures. He's a nice professor and will take time to talk to you after class if need be. At least, in Intro to psychology, the tests are done asynchronously and open book.

If you attend every class, pay attention, and study properly, you'll do great. He only has 4 exams for the entire year, so if you fail one, you at least have a handful of extra credits to help. Tutoring sessions with him during office hours are def recommended. He helps after class as well; he is caring & wise. 10/10 reminds me of Ron Swanson lol

Class wasn't boring, he mixes jokes into his lectures. Tests hit hard, but he gives the questions 2 days before to help study with. Take notes from the slides and a bit from verbal lectures and you'll be fine. Final paper hits hard too, but isn't as hard as you'd think, especially if you take the lab before or during this class.
