This professor is fairly new, and for a newcomer she really shows that she loves her job and loves to teach. Teaching methods are all on Power Point presentations, but not the boring kind. She has it so the entire class interacts with her and it comes with very interesting stories that relate to the class. I would highly recommend her.

Prof Karlis was one of the best prof i had at Macomb. Lots of extra credit was offered to boost your grade. There is one project, 5 group activities done in class, and attendance is mandatory. Overall, if your in class and take notes, you will be fine.

She is the best professor that I have ever had. She is very understanding and helpful. The class itself was a lot of fun and I looked forward to attending every week. I was very sad when the class ended. I could tell she really cared about all of her students individually. As an Education major, my goal is to be half the teacher she is!

Professor Karlis had the easiest psychology class. Psychology hasnt been easy for me in the past but I am doing great with her. each week you have a discussion board post and 2 replies and an assignment and/or test. I highly suggest purchasing or renting the book because youll need it for the discussion board posts which are 55 points each!

One of the best online classes I have taken. Not a ton of work, and the work in the class is very helpful in real life. Prof Karlis provides a safe, non judgmental space to explore different topics while also learning about yourself. She also gives great feedback on everything you do.

She made the three hour lectures interesting and fun. She gave four tests overall, and drops your lowest test grade. the final project is either writing a letter to someone or volunteer work and she gives a lot of opportunity for extra credit. If you can't afford the book, she gives you copies. She is very knowledgeable and understanding of issues.

Prof Karlis is sweet & caring. She uses PowerPoint for her lectures & explains everything thatll be on the test. You have 4 tests, 5 in class assignments (10 pts each), & 1 easy project. The take-home tests are harder than the in class tests. Her examples arent as robust as Prof Mikitch, but shes a great professor & loves class discussion!
