EASY class, kinda boing at times, lots of naked people in the videos
booooooooooooring
Go to class, get an A...dont buy the book
Boring class, don't waste money on the book, funny teacher, do the assignments
easiest course i've had at central. if you need the UP, take her, class is basically a joke.
The class is so easy and fun! I would recommend it to anyone that is interested. Just attend class every day - you won't need a book.
Easy class but must attend she gives attendance assignments.
I have had her for two classes and have gotten A's. Just show up for class and study the notes and you will get an A. Great teacher!
She makes class very interesting and gives many examples. You'll do fine if you go to class and take notes. Do not buy the book. I recommend this class.
go to class take the notes and you'll be fine.
Easy. Interesting. Take her and no one else. End of story.

This class is interesting and relatively easy, DON'T by the book you don't need it.
I loved this class! Not just because it was easy either....It was very interesting and Kit is very energetic and fun. She's a great professor and is helpful and willing to work with her students. You probably won't need the book....
Kit is a lively teacher. It was a great break from the typical lecture class. Don't buy the book though- if you attend class you won't need it.
Great at everything, but the group work sucked.
She's kind of boring, it's mostly notes but if you go everyday and pay attention you will do fine on the tests. Don't waste money buying the book, just take notes.
a little cooky but really nice, very easy, intersting and fun. She gave you stuff you could go home and try on freinds.
Very interesting class.. I might go as far as to say it was fun. Her examples make sense and really help you to see and remember what she's saying.
Very easy class. Tests are over the notes so come to class and you will get an A.
SHe rules, and she's a hippy
Don't buy the book....it's an easy class but the lectures get boring. She's a very nice lady but a lil wierd.
Take the Class! Don't need the book. Exams are iffy but everything else is EASY. I'd take her again in a second.
TAKE THIS CLASS!!! She actually tries to make the information interesting! And, I missed 3 weeks of class and still pulled a B on the test. It's a really easy class.
OMG, i've never been to a more boring class. However, I just looked up all the information on the internet from her study guides, never bought the book, and missed a lot of in-class points, yet still managed to get a B+. i'd take her again.
this class is very easy!! just go to class and take notes and you will be fine!! make sure though that you go to class because there are some in class assignments that are given
This class was so easy I got 203 points out of 200. She gives in class assignments with built in extra credit and the tests are based on the lecture. The class is interesting and you don't need the book.
easy. nice lady. take it
This is an easy class because of the in-class assignments that she gives. It can get pretty boring at times, but if you are looking for a nice teacher and decent grade take this class!Oh yeah and DON'T BUY THE BOOK....WASTE OF MONEY!!!
VERY EASY CLASS!!! GET A LOT OF SLEEP THE NIGHT BEFORE THOUGH BECAUSE SHE IS VERY MONOTONE AND WILL MAKE YOU WANT TO GO TO SLEEP!!! A GUARANTEED A IN THE CLASS
Well put together class, material was not hard to understand. Go to class everyday and study for the exams and you'll do great. I got an A in here.
This teacher is pretty good. I recommend going to class because there are a lot of in class assignments and dont buy the book!
Kit it great! She has soooo much knowledge and most of it is genuinely interesting. I will remember little tid bits of the lectures for many many years since it is so applicable in real life. If you take notes every class you will definitely be able to get an A. I got all 100%.
Kit is a really good teacher. you need to go to class everyday to take notes. you also need to study a little for the tests to get a good grade. you dont need to buy the book
1) DONT BUY THE BOOK 2) go to class, get your notes and class pts. 3) study your notes for the tests, and you'll get an A real simple. oh, and kit is good too.
Great teacher! Great class!! She tells you on the first day that you won't need the book. You just have to go to every class, take notes and do in class activities to get 30 points. Theres no final, just a quiz and 2 tests. She definately knows what she is talking about. I would take her again!
BORING class. You will get an A though. I ignored the warnings on here before I took it and bought the book. I have not opened it once, huge waste of money.
This class is #$&@ing easy!! She gives you everything that will be on the exams, go to class and get extra credit once a week. Only draw back is it is boring as hell and you'll have trouble motivating yourself to go. At least get your ipod and write down all the stuff on the overhead, no need to lis
Good class, I enjoy it
She's very helpful, but teaches at MSU so if you can't make it to office hours on T or R, then you're going to have to catch her after class. She's really helpful, gave me info for grad school.
Very nice. Class is so boring but go cause she gives in class assignments that are so easy. Very helpful always willing to meet with you. Everything in the notes are on the exam, really easy A.
She is an awesome person! Her class is probably the best class I've taken so far. She is a lot of fun! I would recommend taking her to anyone. Her notes are so helpful and she is willing to go out of her way to help you! I couldn't be happier with the experience I've had in her class! Thank You!
awesome lady. she's very clear on her teachings and stuff which helps. her in-class activities are fun. papers are really easy to do. overall, it's a great class
This class is REALLY EASY!! If you go everyday there is no reason you should get below a B+. The exams are semi tough but, there is in-class stuff all the time that will help your grade (you NEVER get any points off if you turn an in-class activity in). The only downfall is the class is only out of 200 points so its best no to slip up.
Kit Payne should get a raise and the teacher of the year award. This women is a phenomenal person and educator. The class is easy and there are a lot of easy points. She explains everything with perfect examples and knows A LOT about the subject. TAKE THIS CLASS!!
This is one of CMU finest! She is clear, organized, and very helpful! Knows the subject very well and is very passionate about teaching the class. Gives out easy points just for going to class. Only gives 2 tests. Really cares about her students. Awesome lady. Excellent class. Tests right from the notes! Don't buy the book, just take good notes.
I can tell she loves her work. Her notes are helpful and she is very open to questions of any kind. She's such a sweet and understanding woman.
Nicest woman in the world. The class is super easy with her because she relates everything in a way that is very easy to understand and she knows a lot and is very helpful. I strongly recommend taking this class with her.
She is so nice and the class is so easy! If you have to take this class, take it with Kit Payne!
This class is so easy! If you have to take this class, take it with Kit Payne!
She is such a good teacher. Very easy class, just turn in your work and go to class and you should be fine. Kit Payne is very nice and helpful
This class is really easy with Dr. Payne, although it may be a tad bit boring at times. If you show up to class and do the in class assignments you'll be fine. The papers and tests are really easy. The book is unnecessary.
Kit is a complete sweetheart! She is such a great professor! The class is actually really interesting, and she is extremely organized. Go to class regularly, because she does have exercises she gives to check on you for attendance. GREAT woman, great professor, etc.
Easiest lady in the world! She let me turn in a paper 2mths late, lol! Her classes are boring, but she gives you all the material you need for test in class. GO to Class- she gives attendence pts. Also, She gives 2 papers they are very easy. Take her and get an "A"!
Kit is truly one of CMU's greatest instructers! She is a unique person, who honestly cares about TEACHING. If you can take her class...do it! You're not even required to buy the textbook! THE BEST CLASS/TEACHER EVER!
Awesome class for a UP and major. I loved her. She was really a good professor and took pride in what she does. She is always looking to help you for anything. Two papers-easy and grades easy too. She tells you what exactly to study for. Two exams and no FINAL you just meet for grade and final activity.
You don't have to buy the book! She gives really good notes. She is so cute and hippie. She doesn't accept late assignments even if you are sick and have a doctors note. But you can get bonus points at the end of the semester to make up for it. She is good take her!
it is a pretty easy class and she is an awesome teacher! you do have in class assignments sometimes... but they are a really easy way to get points. she is very helpful and tells interesting stories. take her if you get the chance!
SHOW UP! If you show up, you will pass. She has 2 exams, and tons of extra credit. No book, all notes are lectured. I think she maybe a neo-hippy, makes sure everyone knows that marijuana is better than cigarettes for fetuses.
Easy A if you go to class, if you go to class only a quarter of the time and get notes from someone like I did, then in class activities will bring you down to a B+ which you could bring up if your not lazy with all the extra credit. She really is a hippie and it was great great class
Kit is an amazing teacher. She is very passionate about her field and loves human development. Go to class, take her notes, and you will pass. Tests are easy (she tells you what to study) papers are fun, and the class is fairly interesting. An easy A or B if you show up for class. Amazing amazing class and teacher.
GO TO CLASS YOU WILL GET AN A. Great class to take she loves the subject and its not that bad but if you want easy A just show up to class and do the work its not hard..
She is a great woman. I was unable to be there a few times during the semester, and she was very willing to work with me. If you attend class it is a easy A. She is very interesting. Not much out of class work eiter. overall rating of this teacher would definately be a A+
She had everything written down and you just copied notes from the overhead. Also you didn't have to buy the book
AMAZING TEACHER, TERRIBLE SUBJECT-IT'S REALLY GROSS esp. the birthing thing yuck! But she teaches quite well and always has some piece of valuable information for her students. I would suggest any class with her... even if it was like how to build a car out of Popsicle sticks class. which she probably can do by the way.
she is a pretty cool teacher, but the info kinda boring at times and some of the videos were weird and gross, but overall not bad. just study for the tests and you'll be fine. but notes are kind of unorganized so just keep that in mind esp when studying for tests. easy A though for sure!
Class was extremely easy, but if you wanted to get the notes you had to go. She also had in-class assignments that she used as attendance that added up at the end of the year and helped out the grade. The class is pretty interesting, she is pretty goofy, but a good teacher.
AWESOME TEACHER. If you are going to take this class, take it with her. She gives great notes, and the tests never include something she hasn't gone over. The inclass assignments are easy. She grades really easy, and even lets you turn in assignments late. She is fun and very very passionate which makes it interesting to listen to her!! Loveee kit!
easy teacher, treats you like a child. if you go to class and take notes you get a 100. dont buy the book
Great teacher! She cares about students and knows the material really well. She is always willing to help anytime that she can. Don't buy the book - I didn't buy it, went to class and got an A. Pretty easy. If you take this class, take it with her!!
Very easy class! Go to class, take notes, and study them and you'll be fine. Attendance is basically mandatory - she gives in class assignments that are worth some points and the end of the semester. All of her exams and quizzes are from her lectures - I never opened my book once! Just make sure you go and take the notes down.
Class is extremely easy! Do not by the book, you don't need it. Go to class, take notes, and study them for the test and you'll be set!
Kitty Kat is awesome! This class is so easy! Don't buy the book, just go to class and take notes straight off the overhead, and then study them. Guaranteed A.
Kit is AWESOME. No book, super interesting stories. You can tell that she really loves her subject and teaching. Tests were so easy, 2 paper/projects that were a breeze. She grades really easy. I would recommend her to everyone. Great UP
I LOVED her. She is a great teacher and explains everything really well. She knows what she's teaching and she loves it too. Very helpful, easy class. Don't buy the book, go to class everyday and take notes. Attendance is mandatory to get the notes and for in class assignments. Great class.
This class was so easy! There was 1 quiz, and 2 exams which are 40 m.c questions each. There were also 2 4-page papers that she grades easy. Don't buy the book! The notes she gives in class are perfect. Lecture is rather boring and it drags on but there's a lot of little in class assignments so it isn't a bad idea to go to class.
Do not need the book. She tells you at the beginning that you dont need to buy it. Super easy class. In class points every now and then. You can sleep through every class and still get an A.
Easy. Go to class, do the little assignments, they add up. Would of had an A in the class, instead of A-, if I went to one more, missed an A by a point. Papers are unbelieveable easy, do not stress out over them. Follow the guideline and you'll get full credit. Tests can be tricky, but nothing a few hours the night before the exam can't handle.
Amazing professor! Notes are clear and precise, easy to get down. You absolutly DO NOT need to buy the book, IF you go to class. She grades really easy, don't worry about the papers. The class is easy but you do have to study a little for exams. Nothing big. If you don't get an A or at least a B you shouldn't be in college because you're just lazy.
Prof. Payne is such an easy teacher. Seriously just go to class, listen to what she says and you'll be FINE on the tests. Don't skip! She does in class assignments randomly. She's really understanding and if you have any problem talk to her about it and she'll work with you. She's very passionate about what shes teaching. I highly recommend.
Go to class and take notes and do the in class assignments. She's very passionate about the subject and gives study guides that tells exactly what is going to be on the exams. Easy A, I ended the class with over %100. I suggest she goes on "What not to wear" though.
She is such a great teacher, gives extra credit. I love her!! Best teacher at CMU hands down. Kind of a hippie but it's okay. She doesn't take attendance but she has in class assignments that are really easy so you might wanna come so you can get the points.
It's important to take the notes in class along with taking note of what she says orally but isn't included on the projector. Many opportunities for extra credit. Grades easily on papers. Very interesting lecturer; you'll learn a lot! The textbook is not used at all except if you want to read as a supplement to the course.
She's great! Sometimes her lectures are long, but I found everything interesting. She's really laid back. There were only 2 papers and a few in-class easy quizzes. She loves to hear your opinions. Just a really nice person.
