OMG!!! I love Professor Falls. If you apply yourself, get involved in the group she assigns you too, and study the review she gives you for the test, ANYBODY can make an "A" in her class. She is the greatest teacher I have had so far at EFC. Group discussion and projects are required. I respect her profession greatly.

Wouldn't take again

Overall, class material was easy and if you read the textbook you would do well on all tests. there is only one opportunity to take tests so if your internet disconnects even for a second you connot finish the remainder of the test and you will be scored based on what you got. Also paper assignment if she cant open it you will be given a zero.

Professor Falls was kind and answered any questions I had. I took the online class, and the lectures/powerpoints were slightly hard to follow but otherwise, the assignments were helpful. If you follow the textbook and powerpoints, you will do well on the assignments. There is an essay due at the end of the class, but you get to choose the topic.

Professor Falls was so amazing! She really helped me out when she didn't have to and I couldn't be more appreciative of that. There were 25 chapter quizzes and then 5 unit tests. She makes the class foolproof if you read the material. The chapters are not very long. Professor Falls is caring of her students, I highly recommend her.

Took her for online Fall 2020. Gives extra credit, textbook is needed, a lot of reading in the chapters. About 12 Quizzes and tests combined but all coursework is open so you can pace yourself. Tests/quizzes are due on the last week of class. Theres also a paper that is a BIG part of your grade so please ask questions and follow directions.

I took the online class. Prof Falls is very specific in her requirements, so pay attention to the instructions on the mandatory assignments. If you are a good note taker, you will have no problem with quizzes and exams. You get 2 attempts for each in order to better your grade. With that said, you will not get the same question twice. Good luck!

I took the 8weeks online class, it is self-paced. If you study well you can knock it out in 4weeks. She has clear grading criteria (25 quizzes worth 15 pts each, 5 tests 100 pts each, 1 mandatory assignment 125 pts, and extra credit 25pts), and she's very specific about what she expects from her students; follow her instructions and you will pass.

Great class to take. Professor Falls sets very clear objectives and follows the syllabus. Extra credit offered. As long as you read and keep up with the homework, you will do well in this class. Professor Falls is very responsive to emails her students send. Highly recommend her class if you need to take psychology.

Professor Falls is the very caring and she's very clear on the course outline. She sends constant reminder, answer emails fast, and gives extra credit. She opens the course few weeks early for students to work ahead, which is a great help! I totally recommend for you to take her class and you will pass if you do your part.

I took Professor Falls online during Fall 2021. This class was very assignment heavy: homework, quizzes, textbook work, etc. But ALL courses were the same, even the other professors. If you do the work, you will be successful. This is college, so the workload was not out of the norm. Professor Falls was great, I'd definitely take her again.

The exams are not difficult and do not require lock down browser, but it has time limit. The big scores are from 3 exams(multiple choice), 1exam(essay) and 3 assignments. Those are 100 score each, and the professor will give you extra credit for the assignment and essay. If you try hard on you assignment, you can expect great score.

If you do good with DIY-teach-yourself course then join the class. Seems using the: "its college, do the work" crutch justifies no teaching of the course. People who took psych in HS have advantage. Claims can't go through the slides on the chapters then fills class time with loosely related videos/stories or asks to do homework in class.

I took her PSYC2301 course and mostly enjoyed it. I felt like her slideshows didn't really relate to anything on the quizzes. Other than that, I had no issues.

Professor Falls' PSYC2301 class was a pretty straightforward learning experience. The coursework was manageable, and using tools like unstuck study alongside the textbook helped me stay on top of things. Overall, a solid course if you're willing to put in the work.

This professor refuses to work with students. During my final exam, I had technical issues uploading it to Brightspace. When I informed her, she just said, “So sorry,” and told me to contact tech support. I did and provided her with the case number, but she ignored my emails and gave me a zero. No help, no response, just silence.

The class consists of readings/PowerPoints and then quizzes as well as final exam. She also has a resume assignment, if you have a resume, it's an easy 100 and if not it's an opportunity for you to create one! I loved that she gives so many extra credit assignments; she made me end up with a 102% as my grade!

I salute to Professor Dora Falls! We had a very unfortunate experience with another psychology professor. Where we would've ended up with an f if Professor Dora wouldn't have stepped up. Not only did she hear our concerns but she made sure we had everything set up as it was intended to be. As well as really good lectures along the way!
