class is interesting because the material is highly applicable to everyday life-pretty fun. either go to lectures/take notes OR read the book, you do not need to do both in order to succeed. extra credit is available, which is always pretty sweet. based on 4/5 multiple choice exams. she is nice, and speaks slowly. emphasizes learning over grades.

She's super clear, her tests are easy if you study your notes. Beware if you get uncomfortable with sexual talk, she is always making jokes and references. Generally she's entertaining though.

She was an awesome professor. Very nice to talk to, and as long as you pay attention in class, you do just fine on the exams. If you see her one-on-one or even before class, she is a very nice person to talk to, very down to earth. Good class.

She is an amazing professor, and very easy to talk to one-on-one in office hours. She was very helpful, and her lectures were so interesting.

Dr. Pickrell wants all of her students to succeed and is always available to help. Lectures are often entertaining, especially with her... let's say vivid examples. She's very enthusiastic about psychology and loves when you ask her about her area of study.

She is a great professor! Definitely keeps lecture interesting. Be sure to pay close attention to the examples she uses, because that is essentially what the exams are on. If you go to lecture/listen to the podcasts and pay attention, then skim the book before an exam for similar material, you will 4.0 it. And Be sure to do the extra credit!

Believe her when she says your grade in this class depends on how much effort you put into it. She gives you all the materials for her tests so failing isn't an option. She's a pretty good lecturer but I don't find going to class useful because I can just read her slides and the book to do well in this class. Take her class if you can.

This class is ridiculously easy. Even if you never take classes alike before. I'm sure you all psych-ers can do good in it as long as you pinpoint what the provided quiz questions ask before you go to the quiz every Monday. Man, I feel blessed to have some doing-good classes in psych. I did much worse in those multiple choices classes.

Super nice & friendly. The extra credit makes this class really easy to ace. Sometimes she drops little test tips (etc) in lectures, so even though everything's straight out of the textbook, don't skip too much! She posts screen caps & podcasts, so when she flips through slides, you don't have to go crazy writing. Straight-forward tests.

Professor Pickrell is a dream, I couldn't have asked for a better freshman fall quarter because of her. She is helpful, wants all of her students to succeed, makes herself available, is very personable, understands her students and how they learn. You will do best if you read the book and go to lecture but both are not necessary, one will suffice.

Frankly, I went to about 50% of the lectures and still earned a 4.0 (a grade that I would have received even without the help of extra credit). If you read the book, you will be well-prepared for the tests. Start the extra credit early on and do all of it as it can earn you a total of 0.3 GPA points increase (which is pretty much unheard of).

She is a great professor. Her class was super interesting, I learned a ton. It wasn't too hard, just study for tests!

Shes a great, friendly professor who wants everyone to succeed. She offers a lot of extra credit, and gives lots of support prior to tests and during her office hours. Tests are multiple choice, and the homework is not hard or overly busywork.

Pickrell is a great professor for a class like this. She knows her stuff & how to present it. She's funny, kind, helpful, & understanding. There's extra-credit, so no sweat. Read the textbook, but don't obsess over small details. You'll do fine :)

Easy class, lots of hand-holding. It is a dreadful Psych major prereq--the material is dry, and despite Dr. Pickrell's best efforts, the lectures were pretty dry as well. You get "action points" for attendance in class and Quiz Section... that's the only thing that kept me the slightest bit interested in attendance.

I thought this Pickrell was a pretty good teacher and this was her first time teaching 209! She was clear about her concepts and assignments. The class was nicely scheduled, the time expected to do assignments was up to par. Tests weren't too bad, grading is a little funky. TAs were nice. Pretty okay Prereq, not dreadful in the slightest.

Dr. Pickrell is a really nice professor. The class wasn't hard, it's just the material was really boring. Just make sure you read the textbook and pay attention in class and you'll be fine.

Not the most interesting class. But the material will hit back at you and make alot of sense in the future. This is how I feel. The tests we alright, but there are alot of assignments that also count to your grade so it's easy to get an A. Recommended!

Lots of overlap between the book and lecture and the potential quiz questions are given in advance--yay. You HAVE to keep up every week (for quizzes), but that's not too hard--first 4.0 at UW! Dr. Pickrell's also a total sweetheart. Most of all, the content is interesting and can honestly help you in other areas of school and life. Great class!

Pickrell is a very good Professor! Her lectures her a little mundance at first, but once you get used to her voice, it is not bad at all. She tries to make the lectures interesting, and really connects with students. Her midterms are easy as long as you attend class and follow along. Textbook reading I would say is a supplement, not a requirement.

One of the best professors out there. She truly cares about your learning and is open to talk about anything...literally anything. She is also very flexible with her tests, if you prove you understand it, she will help you.

She is truly one of the great prof at UW. I loved this class. It was really interesting. I guess the only downside of this class is that, if you screw up in one of the test, unless you get 95% or above in other two exam, its almost impossible to even get a 3.0 ... Study hard and you'll do great.

Pretty straightforward class with fair assessments on homework and tests. Be careful of losing silly points on homework . Make sure to read the textbook and it is a good idea to attend class (because of occasional participation points) although lecture was screencast as well. Also, attending quiz section will help you out in the long run!

It's a pretty dry class, but wasn't too bad. Lectures were pretty boring though. I never read the book and managed a 3.7, but I feel like if I did I would've gotten a better grade. Working with stats in Excel was kinda cool. Overall not much work required but pretty dull.

This course was so dry and so boring that I could barely get myself to study most of the time. But, Dr. Pickrell and the TAs always tried their best to make the homework useful, exams straightforward, and lectures engaging.

Let me tell you about Professor Pickrell. She is one of the nicest and caring teachers I have ever met. If I ever needed help I was able to e-mail her directly. If you go to her office hours, you will be pleased with the in-depth knowledge she has as well as her ability to help you with the coursework and exam prep.

She's awesome. Very interesting lectures, and she is just an interesting person in general!

Mad respect for her offering to personally help out individual study groups during finals week. Not a lot of profs, especially ones in charge of large lectures, offer their time like that. She's a good professor either way, really makes the concepts clear.

Tests are harder than expected. She's a super nice person. What annoyed me the most was that even though she read off the slides she wouldn't provide them. So you went to class and copied down the slides instead of her providing them and then you could listen actively during class.

She is so nice I recommend only taking psych 101 with her! She screen casted the lectures online which was SO helpful because her lectures are packed-full of info. The tests are a little tricky, all are multiple choice. Tons of extra credit and help provided. Loved this class and so interesting!

The class was harder than expected. It is not an easy 4.0, but i managed to obtain a 3.5 with medium effort. It is A LOT of textbook reading, that is basically where you will find all the answers to the tests.

Pretty interesting class and teacher! She records her lectures in case anyone has to skip, but I'd recommend going to all of them because she often leaves little tips about questions that are going to be on the exam. Also, do the extra credit! If you can earn up to .3 credits, why not do so?

This class is awesome! I hardly touched the textbook and just studied her lecture notes/examples used in class. Do the extra credit and you will 4.0 it!

easy class. just read the chapters the night before the test.

I didn't even have to buy the textbook for this class, and I still found the material very easy. Obviously because I didn't have the textbook, I had to go to class, but I actually enjoyed her lectures. The tests were really easy too.

Even though the class was all lectures, the lectures were not boring at all , they were actually really interesting. She was one of the nicest teacher ever, you feel really comfortable. She really knows what she is talking about, she answers all the question students ask. She just might be the teacher that makes you go for a psychology major.

Amazing professor. I personally enjoyed coming to her lectures. There were 2 midterms and 1 final. She also has this "action point" setup, which is basically like clicker questions that you turn in at the end of the class for participation points. She's generous with points because she knows that points mean a lot to us! Definitely recommend her!

Extremely organized lectures and class structure. Grading is tough and often subjective. Feels like she's reading from lecture notes, which means she is well prepared, but it doesn't sound like a conversation. Confident in her knowledge. Very friendly.

Give extra credits on tests, assignments and lecturn attendance. Easy to get a 3.5. But for some assignments, it's not easy to get a really high grade since there are plenty of details needed to take care of. Tests are straightforward. The course content is somehow boring, full of concepts, but some examples used for explanation are interesting.

Amazing professor. Genuinely nice and cares about students' grades. Ended up getting a 4.0 in the class because there are so many extra credit opportunities! Make sure to take advantage of those. Make sure you study for the exams because if you do bad on even just one exam it could impact your grade a lot. If you memorize the textbook you'll do ok

Appears absolutely dedicated to her students and to making sure that they learn

Awesome teacher. Great lecturer, super fascinating, tells lots of jokes and stories. Totally makes it worth going to class. And it's not a hard class either so I showed up for fun, not out of necessity.

I really like professor Pickrell. She is very funny and cares about the grades of her students. She gives a lot of extra credits. Though she posts lectures online, going to class is actually really fun. Definitely recommend her!

She's pretty funny, and cares about her students learning the material.

Great teacher but tested frequently on a LOT of material.

3 midterms and a final. She is a good and interesting lecturer, even brought her dog in one day! She cracks some funny jokes if you have her sense of humor. The tests are a little bit harder than expected, you MUST study her slides, but the good thing is if you miss a lecture she posts them all online. Best psych teacher of them all

Prof. Pickrell is helpful and is big on the extra credit. Wouldn't call the class a "GPA booster" if you're not willing to put in the work. Lots of memorization of concepts and vocabulary. If you miss a day, you may miss out on extra credit bc it's random. She engages the class with fun mini games linked to the lecture. Good class.

Pickrell is a great professor. She really knows what she's talking about. And she explains in a very understandable manner. The lectures are long sometimes but she transitions into topics smoothly. She gives out extra credit on random days throughout the quarter if you attend class. If given the opportunity, I'd take a class with her again.

She is very nice and patient. Her lectures are interesting and useful. There are a lot of opportunities to get extra credits. The exams are not hard if you read the textbook and listen her lecture.

She is a good lecturer and her expectations are clear. There is a lot of vocab and designs that are covered and details matter.

One of the best professors Ive had at the UW. Dr. Pickrell is extremely knowledgeable and happy to help students. Her lectures were actually interesting and grading criteria was crystal clear. The exams were tougher than expected despite being multiple-choicemake sure you really know the material. I'd definitely take a class from her again. A+

So far one of my professors I've had at UW. Her tests are very straightforward, and she keeps lectures interesting. She has a nice sense of humor, very enthusiastic about what she teaches, and I looked forward to going to her class every day.

I liked Professor Pickrell a lot! Research methods is not the most interesting topic in the field of psychology, but it does serve a purpose and Pickrell does her best at teaching it. The HW assignments were lengthy, but if you start early and follow guidelines, you'll be fine. Tests are completely fair. Action points require attendance.

Extra credit saves you for .3 of your grade. She is very clear in what she teaches and brings in a lot of anecdotes but everything she says just comes from the textbook. You also have to read the textbook for the online homework. So you don't really have to attend class if you read the chapters.

Very knowledgeable professor, loved her classes. She is very funny and cares about the grades of students. Definitely recommend it.

Super nice and helpful and gives a lot of bonuses, but that doesn't mean you don't need to study. She's fun as well!

Professor Pickrell is a genuinely good person. As a result, she cares about your grades--sometimes even more than you do. Lecture material is dry, but her investment and enthusiasm add life to it. Exams can be tricky, though; make sure you know the material well. Homework is easy points.

If you need to take 209, definitely take it from her! Not the most fun or easiest material but she understands that and compensates with extra credit. Genuinely cares that her students succeed and makes sure they learn without having to worry about grades. Must-have professor.

AMAZING PROFESSOR, VERY HELPFUL, NICE, AND GREAT TEACHER! EXAMS ARE HARD BUT SHE PREPARES YOU FOR THEM VERY WELL! A+

I really enjoyed this professor! She's a very nice person and great lecturer. There is lots of reading for the class, but it's all interesting. She turns off the mic often, so make sure you attend class, and she also occasionally gives an extra credit point to people in class. Class is easy and interesting, would definitely recommend to take.

Had Dr. Pickrell for Psych 101 and definitely recommend her. There are 3 tests, non cumulative. There is also online work. Random days she'll award a "participation point" if she sees a lot of people don't show up which allows you room to miss a point on a test. Read your notes and show up for lecture and do the extra credit studies and you'll 4.0

Hands down the best professor I've had so far. Impossible to fail but you do need to work a little for an A. Homework is a large part of your grade but its participation based. Also, every psych 101 class offers up to 0.3 extra credit if you participate in a few psychology studies. You won't regret taking her class.

The reading for this class wasn't required, but I felt that it helped to do the reading that went with the lectures and do the online activities too. Occasionally she offers extra credit in the lecture, and you can also participate in psych studies outside the class to get extra credit. Multiple choice tests and the final was not cumulative :)

The best professor I have so far! She always showed interesting examples and videos. For test, you have to remember what she thought in class, the textbook wasn't so important. She was nice and helpful! Highly recommend!

Engaging and clear lectures. If you don't understand something, she is open to clarifying questions.

Best prof I've ever had! She gives extra credit for attendance. There were only 3 tests, all multiple choice. Go to class and read the textbook and you'll do well!

Immediately on the first day I knew I would like her. She's a very clear speaker and her lectures are engaging and easy to understand. Her examples are solid and she brought in her dog for a chapter! Tests are multiple choice and straightforward. Be prepared to read the textbooks though. She's very generous with extra credit though!

The material of PSYCH 101 can sometimes be bland and boring but Professor Pickrell makes the class more interesting by adding personal stories and funny jokes!

She's done an amazing job on some of the boring topic. Her examples are fun and interesting, make it easier to remember. You do not necessary have to read, but if you want a 4.0 that would be worth it. The HW is participation and there is a lot of extra credit opportunities so you do not have to worry about failing the class.

Lots of extra credit opportunities. I never read the textbook once, and I'm going to get probably about a 3.8-4.0 out of the class because of the extra credit opportunities. Lectures are on ponapto, so you could skip but you get EC for attending class sometimes. Makes boring topics interesting. Definitely would recommend.

I would definitely take Pickrell again. Actually, I will be taking one of her 200-level courses next quarter! Overall, I would say she is a great professor. Although her lectures could be a little vocabulary-heavy, I suppose that is to be expected in any 101 psych course. I would certainly recommend Professor Pickrell to anyone interested in psych.

She is a great teacher, she is funny and likes to crack jokes. I would'nt say she is the easiest 4.0. You do have to read the textbook to really understand the material and use the vocab words in context for her 3 multiple choice test. If you want an easier 4.0 Id say to fine a different prof.

The class was very easy. Pickrell was very nice. She gave out a lot of extra credits, but you have to be in class to receive them. Her exams are largely base on her lectures, and maybe a few specific questions will be from the book. The homework is easy, it counts as long as you finish them on time.

Super easy class as long as you actually try. Do the readings, study for tests, and see if you can study using old tests of hers. At least a couple questions will show up on your exam from past ones. She is super helpful too! I've never had a professor volunteer to come to their student's study sessions outside of class that aren't organized by UW

Best teacher ever. Lecture is clear and interesting. Tests are easy and you can get up to 0.3 point extra credit. Got 4.0 for the class.

Funny and definitely invested, knows he topic and gives tons of examples for the terms. The tests are definitely related to the lectures, so if you go to class you'll be totally fine. She has participation points! Worth taking.

One of my favorite profs so far. Lectures aren't mandatory but I still go everyday. She is engaging and funny, and I can tell she cares a lot about her students. She clearly knows what she is doing. She's also pretty woke. Overall, she's adorable and I wish she was my grandma.

Professor Pickrell genuinely cares about her students' learning and well-beings. Although the materials are a lot and very heavy on vocabulary, she communicates the information through many examples, pictures, role plays, and videos. Her humor is great so lectures are not as boring. She provides many opportunities for extra credit.

Professor Pickerel is the most genuine professor I've ever had. She's an expert on the material and gives many examples and videos. She genuinely wants her students to succeed and provides many opportunities for that to happen. Her lectures are online, so you don't have to come to class but she gives out extra credit if you're there.

I really enjoyed going to lecture everyday. She made class interesting.

Dr Pickrell makes it very easy to succeed in her class. The format of her 355 class is set up using the very same psych principles you learn in it - she gives you quizzes every monday that you can't skip- but your grade will thank you in the end and if you worked for it! Be ready to work but also actually learn the material.

The demonstrations she made are really helpful in understanding and memorizing the concepts. The lectures were engaging and also really fun. I enjoyed her class a lot.

A test a week is not fun but it helps you learn and you'll thank your hard work throughout the quarter by the time the final rolls around.

I loved taking Pickrells Psych 101 class, her lectures were entertaining and educational. Go to class! she occasionally gives out extra credit for just being there, but if you miss class there was always panopto. When she involved the class in her lectures the activity was memorable and interesting.

The class was pretty easy. You can choose to go to class or read the textbook. She basically lectures out of the textbook. A lot of the test questions were pulled from the online textbook reviews.

She's extremely nice, but sometimes here lectures are a little boring because the material is sometimes really dry. About 5 times during the quarter she gives one point of extra credit if you show up to class, and if you do all of the psychology studies extra credit you get a .3 GPA boost. Make sure you study her lectures for the tests. Great class

Really enjoyed the class, and although the material can be a little dry she works hard to add fun aspects to the lectures. The class was very clear, organized, and the grading was straightforward but mostly based on tests. So as long as you show up to class and read the textbook, the material isn't too difficult to understand.

Lecture's take information from the text, but she outlines the main concepts very well and she tries to make everything relevant. Everything is online. She gives lots of extra credit, but you have to come to class to get it (and you don't know what days will have it). She's also just a super cool person, and her tests are multiple-choice.

One of my favorite professors at UW. You can tell she's really passionate about the content that she teaches and that reflects on the class' ability to perform well. Show up to lectures-- the class has a lot of content and it's easy to fall behind. She also offers a ton of extra credit so take advantage of it

Pickrell is my favorite professor at UW! She makes the content super interesting and loves what she teaches. Gives lots of extra credit if you show up to class/do psych studies. She was super helpful in office hours as well. Exams have some Launchpad questions on them. I definitely recommend this class!!

The content of the class is really interesting and Pickrell is one of the best lecturers I've ever had. Funny, good at explaining, and engaging. The class itself is pretty easy; I put in minimal effort and got a 4.0. This is a great class to take if you're looking for something low stress but interesting. Would recommend Pickrell 100%

Extra credits for attendance appear randomly. Make sure attend every class if you want EAs. The highest exam score are always adjusted to full points. Reading the textbook, attending lectures are important, because she tests you on them. The videos shown in lectures and demonstration are also fair games for exams. I get 4.0 in this class!

Psych 101 is a pretty easy class if you read all of the textbook and attend lectures. Dr. Pickrell's lectures focus on big or confusing topics in which she may give some helpful demos. The textbook fills in a ton of details you need to know for the test. She and the TAs hold helpful OH and the TAs lead really great exam review sessions!

Professor Pickrell is one of the better lecturers/professors I've had. She explains things really well, however she only focuses on big topics that need to be discussed. Make sure you read the textbook and take notes on it as well. Do the extra credit in her class, take notes during her lectures, ask questions when necessary, and you'll 4.0

Spector is a really good teacher. The majority of her lectures are her reading off the powerpoint and then expanding on those ideas verbally which is a format that worked well for me. The tests were not hard if you came to lecture everyday and paid attention. I received good scores just by attending lecture without doing the reading.

Loved the class and would take again in a heartbeat. Very straightforward and lots of opportunities for extra credit. A really good, witty teacher.

Her name is actually Jacqueline Spector (she just got married). She's an amazing lecturer that provides tons of examples for psychology concepts that make them easily stick in your memory. Attending lectures, taking notes, and reading the textbook is sufficient to pass the class. There's lots of extra credit offered as long as you attend lectures.

She genuinely wants you to learn the material. Her lecture slides are extremely comprehensible, her lectures add great supplementary information, her exams are straightforward, and she gives out extra credit for additional incentive!

Phenomenal lecturer, simply amazing. She knows how to capture students' attention and make tricky psych concepts stick in your brain with awesome examples. Her first and last exam (final) were easy but beware of the second (avg. was 33/40). Go to lecture for extra credit, specifically on days when attendance is low (W Day, Halloween...)

The best professor!!! Super interesting lectures with great explanations and examples. The homework is really easy and it's just for participation; make sure you don't forget to do any of it because it's worth a pretty big part of your grade since there's not a lot of total points! Also, there's a few EC opportunities just for being in class :)

Great at lectures, but I would advise to take other professors unless you can remember a month's worth of content for each test. Requires reading the textbook to pass this class as well. The only motivation to go to class is the occasional extra credit. Not well suited for me as a student, but if you study a lot you can make it work.

You really need to study hard and review a bunch of lecture notes, but the class is really great! She explains the complicated context really clearly and she is really passionate about the class. Love her so much!

Fairly easy class, as long as you pay attention in lectures it's not hard to do well. She's an entertaining lecturer and the subject matter is very interesting.

Awesome person. She's a great teacher and her lectures were usually very entertaining due to the energy behind her explanations. There's also a lot of opportunities for extra credit. The class was harder than I thought it would be as the tests required a lot of memorization. However even if you don't study at all the class is an easy 3.4+.

The best professor Ive ever had. Her lectures are super engaging. She is hilarious and adds lots of jokes to her lectures. She gives you extra credit for just showing up, and you get full points on HW just for doing it. She also brings her dog to class! Shell give back points on exam Qs that she deems unclear. Its obvious she really cares.

Really amazing intro to psych. This class is just a survey of "all of psych", so it's breadth not depth. It is fairly easy, but don't let it get away from you. Beware the second midterm. DO ALL THE EXTRA CREDIT. And, most importantly, go to her office hours. She is so nice and will open doors for you in the psych department.

Her class is graded on the UW 4.0 scale - 192/200 points is a 4.0 but it drops quickly. Homework is very easy and is graded on completion, Can take 5 mins/week if you're lazy. Do all the extra credit! You can get up to a .3 grade boost. Tests require studying and they screwed me. I got 160/200 points in the class and got a 3.0 were/ ec.

Super interesting lectures, I'm not a psych major but this class was super cool, prof is very kind, tests are easy, good study guides as well. Would totally take again.

Pickrell is a great teacher and her tests are fairly easy. Attendance isn't mandatory, but sometimes she gives extra credit if you are there.

She does a really great job of explaining the general aspects of psychology, good lecture style, weirdly structured slideshows but overall great professor! She has a great sense of humor and truly cares for her students! Would definitely take again.

You can basically Panopto the lectures, and finish it in 30 minutes instead. She gives a lot of extra credit points (5-ish total) if you're in class, when there's a low turn out for that day. She uses tv shows examples to make content relevant. The pacing is a bit slow. Reading the textbook is highly recommended.

Dr. Spector was an amazing prof. She gives out an exorbitant amount of extra credit, all homework except for one small paper is participation based, and when tests had poorly worded questions, she gave everyone EC when we argued them. Her office hours help immensely and she always has a story to tell. Her lectures were riveting and I never skipped.

Fantastic speaker, clearly knowledgeable, and a very nice person. The content is rather broad and covers a wide variety of topics. After tests, if students can justify wrong answers she gives a few extra credit points. Also, if you go to class, she'll give ec every once in a while.

Awesome lectures. Exams are not easy, but a lot of extra credits. Thanks for making me love psychology.

She tries to make jokes and add some humor to her lectures so they're not as dry. She uses different examples to help certain topics stick in your head. Attendance isn't mandatory since she doesn't take attendance and there's panopto, but sometimes she gives extra credit just for showing up. Do every homework since there's only 200 total points.

Professor Spector is amazing! She is a great lecturer, and the stories she tells in class are so funny, genuine, and inspiring. She gives a ton of extra credit for showing up to class, and your GPA can be boosted up to 0.3% just by participating in the psych research pool. After taking her class, I now want to major in psychology!

She adds 0.3 points to your gpa, and 5 in-class extra credit, 4 credits more if you do all hw. One paper (2-3pg) very easy, lowest is 14/15. She gives extra credit random so don't skip class. She adds at least 1-2 points to midterms if you prove her question is ambiguous. For exam, read textbook+Launchpad+old exam. Her lecture is fun, class engaged

The GOAT. Didn't read the textbook after the first test (there are 3 total) and still ended up with a 4.0. Too many free points to count. Just stay on top of the weekly assignments, take advantage of the extra credit opportunities and you'll be golden.

This class was really easy and interesting. Sometimes she moved too fast through lectures, but that was honestly not a dealbreaker because the material wasn't really difficult. She gives a lot of random extra credit in lecture, especially on days where not many people show up.

Dr. Pickrell is a great lecturer. She makes things clear to understand, drops some jokes here and there, and offers a ton of extra credit. Some test questions are from the book, so reading is expected, but the workload isn't too bad. Lectures are recorded, so attendance isn't mandatory. Easy A if you get all your work done!

grade weighs heavily on tests, but she is willing to help and offers extra credit. very kind and cares about you actually learning the info, can go to office hours and learn a lot/ talk about the best psychology based movies. she also refers you to other professors in UW who may help you or have classes you may enjoy. id ask her for a letter of rec

I absolutely loved this professor. She was always available at office hours to discuss class topics, or other any aspect of psychology. She genuinely cares how well you do in the class, if you make an effort. There is opportunity for extra credit and few other assignments, but the tests make up a huge part of your grade.

Lectures are entertaining; she does .3 GPA increase if you participate in psych research pool and does in class extra credit points randomly so try not to skip if you want those (they add up). Great class, great professor, easy ways to get a good grade but you have to dedicate some time and energy into it.

Most caring teacher I've ever had in my life. She teaches the material phenomenally as well. Her class was at 9:30am and I commute but I still went to class every day because I liked her lectures. The tests aren't bad if you study and there are tons of in class extra credit and research studies that boost .3 in your grade. TAKE THIS CLASS!!

Jackie is an absolute gem. Her lectures are really funny and interesting, often involving props. The exams are fairly easy if you read the textbook and pay attention in lectures. The film paper takes two hours tops. Id day 2hrs/week reading outside class and youll get a 4.0, and she gives up to +0.3 on ur final grade if you do psych studies
