He's a great guy... read the book, not your notes. tests on minor details.

He only tests on the book, just read it, it's the only work he ever asks of you

This class rocks!

good teacher - funny guy

wow, can this man not spell. other than that, and his slight hyperactivity, he's a good teacher. made a class i'd normally find freakishly dull interesting. go to him for help if you need it! he's very good one-on-one.

Dr. Horton is a great professor! I learned so much from him and he kept class really interesting. Also, his tests weren't hard at all if you study a little!

He's a good guy... little weird, well, very weird, but that's all right. I stay awake and it's at 8, so that's saying something.

Easy class, very nice guy, interesting subject.. but he took attendance EVERY MORNING. We're not in elementary school anymore!

I took him twice. Goofy guy with great sense of humor. Knows his stuff. Makes class interesting. Those who thought he was hard are morons that dont study or pay attention in class. He takes attendance but you dont want to skip anyway. Take him.

Very amusing professor.

Test questions ambiguous and He looks like a very sad Cow. Horrible jokes and humor. Treats everyone like your in 2nd grade by taking attendance with index cards You will want to shoot yourself. Do not underestimate the difficulty of this class it is not easy and neither is child adolescent psych

He's definitely odd, but the class was straight forward and the tests weren't bad if you studied.

This guy is just an amazing professor! He really cares about what he teaches and is very excited about his work (especially at 8 am). His tests are fair and covers what's in the study guide and what's explained in class.

He's AWESOME! He's fabulous 1-on-1 and he's really intellegent, though he might not act it in the classroom. I recommend him to anyone and everyone! One of my favorite professors. Very helpful and test are based off the book, KNOW THE BOOK!

Pretty easy class. Know the book. Enjoy his quirks.

(Sleep and Dreams) This was a great class. We just discussed the reading and took the midterm and final. Dr. Horton is a very animated and fun teacher. He did grade somewhat strictly--he seemed to have very specific things that he was looking for on the test and they had to be said in the right way.

Interesting class. The final is kind of ridiculous

Extremely...extremely annoying mannerisms. I found the book 100% fascinating, but he somehow chose the absolute most boring subjects to touch on, making it a painful class to attend, especially at 8 am. The book itself is worth reading though. I'm sure he means well...

Good teacher and he makes psych interesting. Tests/quizzes are difficult and specific. Some people are annoyed at the way he teaches and his mannerisms. I just came to class looking to be entertained and I had no problem.

The material was pretty interesting at times. However, Horton demonstrates obnoxious mannerisms and has childlike moments on a consistent basis. The class seems to be worth taking but prepare for a trip back to middle school.

Dr. Horton covers a lot of infor in an organized way. His tests are difficult, but not unreasonably so. You need to study notes and the book equally. Yes, his mannerisms might bother some people, but he honestly isn't that bad. I didn't like him at first but I got used to his quirkiness. This class is excellent if you're interested in the subject.

Horton is a tough professor, he is very willing to help you though. Just ask him. He's a hard grader and won't round points, but overall I liked him. Just be prepared to work hard... REALLY hard. Read everything and participate in class discussions. He loves that. Also study like your life depends on it, because in this class, it kind of does.

The PSYCH 101 class is by far my favorite class this semester. Dr. Horton did a great job. The people that usually complain are the ones who don't do the chapter readings, but even those are interesting.

You will not like him if you are easily annoyed, easily offended, stupid enough to ignore him and surf Facebook in class, or too lazy to study. Dr. Horton is a great professor- he's funny, he's personable, and yeah, he's a bit quirky. He expects a lot, but you're in college now, so you should really learn to deal with it.

His class, specifically the tests, can be a challenge, but the material itself is interesting and he does a good job keeping class from getting boring.

Best class I have ever taken! He was so interesting and engaging. His tests are easy if you take good class notes, pay attention, and read the assigned chapters. I highly recommend taking him

There are only three grades in the whole entire class. Test 1, test 2, and test 3. There are literally no other grades in this class.

I really enjoy what he talks about in class and the reading assignments. I do have to say that his tests are literally the hardest things ever. He will ask "which one is the BEST answer" when multiple answers could be correct. It's just really tricky multiple choice. Decent guy though.

He has a quirky sense of humor. I have found that people either love him or hate him. Personally, I loved him, but I can see his personality being a problem if you are easily offended. His test aren't easy but they are extremely fair.

Do the readings, or you may barely pass the class. Tests are hard, but if you study the correct way, you will be fine. Pay special attention to figures in the books that he mentions will be on the tests - they will definitely be there.

For a Grove City College person, he seems to have his head screwed on pretty straight.

If you do all of the reading and study the material from both the reading and the lectures, it isn't too difficult to do well in the class. The only grades in the class are exams and finals so it is important to do well on those. While he can say some annoying things sometimes, Dr. Horton is a good professor overall and the class was interesting.

This professor is a bit of an oddball. In class, he has a kind of awkward humor that can be funny but only if you like that stuff. His lectures are always very important and usually interesting as well. If you take his class, just remember that you NEED TO READ. However, some students got by just with knowing vocab and connections.

Dr. Horton is an awesome professor! I went into PSYC 101 really nervous because of what I'd heard from other students. It turned out to be a great class and pretty easy! As long as you read the textbook content before the test you should be fine. I have also taken PSYC 209 with him and had the same experience! Would recommend

Dr. Horton and his magnificent eyebrows are very entertaining in class. His lectures are clear and interesting. He's very upfront about what he expects, but he is absolutely willing to work with you and gives you many opportunities to improve your grade and extra credit. I genuinely enjoyed class with him. Read and come to class and you're golden.

Horton is clear about the expectations; you have to read and pay attention in class. Even if you didn't full on study but did those two things, you'd do fine. His tests only cover what he taught and what you read - no surprises. His lectures are awesome and they do a great job adding to what you read

Dr. Horton is an excellent fellow. He is very passionate about his field and this as well as his sense of humor are prevalent throughout his teaching. He also has an intense enjoyment of cows.

I loved Dr. Horton! His exams are tough, but if you read and come prepared to class you will do fine! He gives so many opportunities to boost your grade (a paper and extra credit) and he truly is so passionate about what he teaches! He is absolutely hilarious and a wonderful lecturer because of that! Take him if you can!

Fascinating class, but he is very opinionated on certain things, and those certain things are a bit controversial. Ignore that bit and you'll love this class. All of the articles we read were interesting and the classrooom discussion was always enjoyable. He is actually pretty gracious and kind in this class

Take Childhood Development with Dr. Horton! Great guy, quirky but kind, makes class fun and has reasonable expectations for students. Not hard to do well, but you HAVE to take good/thorough notes in class AND read the book. If you do both of those things, tests aren't hard. Focus especially on the case studies!

Most entertaining professor for any psychology course. You will learn a lot!

Dr. Horton is HILARIOUS. He's a quirky dude, and his classes are always really entertaining. I always knew what to expect on his exams, and he always asked pretty fair questions on the exams. He is reading heavy, but a good teacher (He will not recognize you outside of class. Ever.)

Dr. Horton is a hilarious and very unhinged professor. I was never bored in his class. The exams are heavily from the textbook and lecture so make sure you read. He gave clear instructions for the group paper and gives good feedback to help you improve. Your grade is solely exams and your paper.

Some say he's not great, but his class and the way he taught it was my favorite. He is a little quirky, but it's fun and engaging. You'll never be bored in class, especially if you're interested in children, education, or psychology. The tests are multiple choice and do require reading on your own, but he gives a lot of info in class. He's so fun!
