I wont call her Dr. Fowler, because she does not deserve that title. Lauren's class is very challenging online. Your grade is based alone on how you do on her tests. She tries to trick you. The connect program for her homework will freeze up on you and lose all your progress, and she does not care. DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS IF POSSIBLE!!!!!!

Wonderful class! Great lectures & discussions, super knowledgeable (diverse knowledge, too), very friendly. One-question quiz every week (drops lowest 5), 4 exams & one cumulative final (drops lowest exam score so final is optional if you like your grade). I will definitely take a class from her if she teaches the ones I need!!!

Awesome professor. understands what makes students tick and tries to encourage your good qualities rather than snuff out the bad ones. More concerned with your success than your grade and tries to make it fun.

She has been a GREAT teacher! She is always there to help and answers emails quick! I have a really hard time with psychology but because she is so wiling to help I've been able to kept an A this semester. I would definitely recommend her!

Loved Dr Fowler. Four exams which were tough, but if you go to class you'll be fine. She also drops a test in my case she dropped the comprehensive final. There was a project that she tells you about at the beginning of the semester which was not a big deal. Would recommend her for sure!!! Ended up being my favorite class I've taken so far.

I love Dr. Fowler. She is so excited about teaching and really makes tough concepts easy to understand. Her class is mostly graded from tests, which doesn't bother me. If you aren't a big test taker, you may not want to take her. She requires one paper at the end of the semester which you get to pick a topic for. She is so helpful, nice, amazing.

I love Dr. Fowler! However, avoid this class if it is team-taught with Dr. Trask. The two have such different teaching styles and expectations that it creates a headache on tests. They also assign much more homework than I have ever seen for a three credit hour class, including group projects, reading a novel outside of class, and a weekly quiz

Professor Fowler was one of the best online professors I've ever had. She gives you everything and then some to succeed in this class. As long you complete the homework and study for your exams you will pass this class. She is quick to respond to any questions and bring some humor to the class. Definitely recommend!

She is hands down one of my favorite professors I have ever had! She is always excited about the brain and inspires students every lecture. She is also a fantastic listener. She truly cares about her students and how well they learn. I hope to have the opportunity to take more of her classes moving forward.

This is a senior level course, but she will allow non-seniors in. She is wonderful. Positively wonderful. She just wants to make sure that the students learn something and are thinking critically, and this applies for all her classes. As long as she sees you are trying, you will do fine. Dr. Fowler, 5/5

Drugs and the brain class. Would highly recommend taking this class from her, she is a wonderful lecturer, though often falls behind schedule. If you read the book you will do much better in the class. She is always open to questions, and often answers many questions students have after class. Exams are difficult but she occasionally curves 5/5

Dr. Fowler is an incredible professor! I took her class online. There are 5 tests, which are all easy if you do the homework. You only have the tests, and like 5 homework assignments due the whole semester. She really seems like she cares and really does want you not only to pass, but to get an A. She's awesome. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I loved this class and how we learned. She used a smart book and it tested us. If you do the tests over and over again you will pass the class. I got an A out of this class and really enjoyed it! The smart book tests count as homework and then she does an easy concept essay. I highly recommend her!

Professor Fowler is very caring of her students. She wants everyone to understand the material. Theres a test every 2 weeks so its not a whole lot of information. No cumulative exam which is nice. She is a little strict on to talking during class which got annoying but overall a very good teacher. Loved the class.

Dr. Fowler is amazing!! She has clear expectations and gives you PLENTY of tools to pass this class with an A. Tests are majority of your grade but you should do fairly well if you study all of the material she gives you (which is a lot). This was my favorite course so far at Weber State. Professors can make or break an experience in a class but Dr. Fowler made it worth while.

The class was very test heavy. There were 5 tests in the semester. The homework is not a walk in the park either. The class uses connect and the chapter homework usually has more than 100 questions. It takes as long time to complete. I have never seen connect homework that long before this class. If you don't study for tests, you won't pass.

All the homework is done through Connect, yes they are big assignments (100 questions) BUT if you do them they help a lot on the tests. Also go to her scheduled Chats, she will answer all you questions and it helps a TON for the tests. She gives 5 tests plus the Final, and she drops your lowest test score- that includes the Final.

I actually really enjoyed this class even though I was an online student. She really tries to be available at all time to all of the students. Its an easy A all the way. The exams depend on the amount of information so they can get a little lengthy, but is not tough information at all. I highly recommend if you need an online class.

Use test guides and use the end of chapter quizzes to ace exams. A lot of reading, but is all highlighted for the important parts. Assignments are easy as long as you got the material you read. Extra credit is offered and one exam is dropped (if you do well enough, you don't have to take the final). Good class to get into psychology.
