Lectures apply to real world classroom! Easy going!

Nice guy, a little boring, lecture is mostly an outline of the text.

Boring class, but not hard. One of the best psy profs I've had here though.

Lectures are helpful and well organized, but you must read. Tests are tricky.

tests are VERY tricky & he missed more classes than i did...

Good class, the type of course that is challenging in a good way

Easy if you understand the material. Very easy to understand if u go to class.

Nice Prof! Tests are easy if you read the book.Doesn't take attendance.goodclass

If you paid attention in class and skimmed the book, it was a piece of cake.

Not the most exciting guy, but really knows his stuff, and wants you to know yours. Take him if you want to actually apply what you learn.

good prof. skim book, go to most classes, have COMMON sense, great class. fun EC opportunities. interesting & helpful guy.

Boring, Get notes off BB, skim book, go to class. not terribly hard, fair.

Excellent enthusiastic professor, and gifted in the art of teaching from his knowledge base. He incorporates a multitude of teaching styles, giving every type of learner the greatest chance for success. Sign up!

Tough class but very interesting. You can tell he really likes what he teaches!

Tough tests until you figure out his system. I learned a lot about test taking strategies.

Very boring but you learn good test taking strategies, you don't really have to go to class, just read the book. Not very fair, gives paper grades based on how well you're doing in the course. Don't take if you're not a psych major.

If you think his class is boring, try speaking up a lot.He is soo much more fun when the class is active,the kind of prof whochanges with different types of classes.Good, solid prof, very knowledgeable, very helpful if you need it.

Good teacher, very knowledgable. Work is easy to do. Explains things well and helpful. Class communication makes the class more interesting and not so boring.

A very good prof!!! Tries to make sure everyone understands....does a nice job explaining things. Goes in depth on possible implications for a studies results. Really makes you think. If you are going to be a teacher his class is a wonderful resource.

Very easy. If you go to class and read the readings you will do fine on the tests. He puts all of his notes on line so during his lectures you can concentrate on what he is saying which made the class easier. He gives you a chance for extra credit.

Not a bad prof. I failed with yarlass, and took this guy and only came to class half the time and recieved an C. if your shooting for a C, take him, if higher take someone else

Prof. Wolfe is funny, nice, and knows what he is talking about. The class is designated a "Lab" class for a reason though - there are tons of studies you are expected to know, so if thats not your thing, find another class. READ THE BOOK!

an ok class. i had it at 8am so it was a little boring, but good. he's funny and grades fair. no homework, 3 test, and a paper. easy!

He is a very nice prof., he was more willing than any other prof. that I have had to work with you. He is just a really nice guy.

Very fun class. He does an excellent job of giving examples. Very enthusiastic about topics. The tests are kind of hard but if you read and listen to him they're ok. He really makes you interested in cognition. And in a smart kind of way he's goodlooking

overall a good prof. no study guide for tests, so it is hard to know what to study. 3 multiple choice tests(final is not cumulative) and one 2 page paper(simple). if you want to learn a lot about different studies done about learning he is your man!

The class was awesome! Dr. Wolfe is an amazingly passionate teacher that cares about his field, classes and students. The lectures were stimulating and often left me in thought about the subject for extended periods.

He is a very good prof!! He cares about the students who care about the class. Those students who choose not to come to class are the ones that think the class is impossible. Come to class and study a little bit and you should do OK.

He was a very helpfull professor, always willing to answer any questions that you had and able to meet with you if his office hours didn't work. No study guides for the test, but if you read the book and go to class, you should be fine without one.

Really nice guy with a good sense of humor. Fair work load for the credits given. All powerpoint lectures are posted on blackboard. Paying attention to the experiments will help you on the tests.

enjoyed this class very much!

This class is HARD. His tests are difficult but the papers do help your grade a lot. He cares about the students, making sure you understand the material. He can be kind of stuck up and believes he is right about everything. overall, he is ok

He's a bit boring until he starts talking about the stock market. Then he starts to get really excited and it's quite a show. If he was that enthusiastic all the time the class would be a lot more fun. Not the worst prof I've had.

Very intelligent and makes it very easy to understand material. Lectures are boring but a lot of test material is from his lectures. Read the book chapters as well. Article summaries are easy and tests aren't too bad.

Lectures were extremly boring, however you didn't have to read the book to get an A. A high majority of the test questions come from lecture. Notes came in the form of experiments performed in the past that are relevant to education theory. Topics were interesting, but the one-and-a-quarter hour long lectures were a drag. Overall, I would recommend

The material is very interesting and he presents it in a way that is interesting and relevant to how you will use it as a teacher. He isn't concerned with definitions and concepts, but experiments that bring about greater theories and effective teaching methods. Very useful class with a helpful and interesting professor. Take him!

This class does require you to read and attend class. You need to take notes and study for his tests. But if you do that and the articles he assigns you should do fine.

This class was pretty difficult, I have to admit. You don't have much work to do, but read and report on article summaries. If you pay attention, study, and take good notes, you should do fine. Prof Wolf is somewhat monotone and many times boring. But he is a really nice guy and you can definately tell he is interested in the subject.

The class is hard but if you go to class and listen and take GOOD and CLEAR notes you should do fine. Make sure you dont slack on the article summaries because those can make or break your grade. Overall he is very nice and helpful. Exams are hard.. essays sometimes seemed as impossible!!

Hard class, excellent professor. I never missed a class, studied class notes and text for a full week before each exam. Got an A. If students did not do well, it was a lack of studying, not a lack of professor interest or clarity. You learn a lot about effective and ineffective ways of learning and studying which is a good thing to know in college!

He is always willing to answer questions. He assigns response papers (only 3/4 of a page) to experiments, which helped my grade a lot. His tests are EXTREMELY wordy and difficult. In order to do well, you need to go to class, take notes, read the text, and do the response papers. I learned a lot, though.

Great course and good prof. He knows a ton about psychology, which can sometimes leave your head spinning a bit. The only assignments you do for the course are 3/4 page assignments on psych. experiments. Test are difficult because you never know exactly what will be covered, so you'll need to make sure you read, attend class do assignments.

You have to attend, lectures and slides are needed to pass. It's not a hard class, and he makes it really fun considering how dry the topics can become. The summaries will really help your grade and are really easy.

Great prof, very straight forward. Grade based on 3 exams and 1 paper. You need to attend every class. His tests are mostly lecture based and you will need to do the reading outside of class. Make sure you read the textbook knowing he will ask concept type questions. I did fine.

Good class and a lot of great discussion. Make sure to come to class. Research findings are shared that you are tested over and that are not in the book. Exams are kind of difficult if you don't come to class. I highly recommend doing the questions to review every week.

Go to class, pay attention and read the book.

Clear and detailed. Great guy.

Class was boring. Read articles and discussed them. Questions were due by Saturday morning via email, since it was the weekend I always forgot and missed about 30 points b/c of it. Graded easy on midterm but hard on oral presentations...don't get it. He was occasionally funny, which helped. No textbook = awesome.

Attendance wasn't mandatory and lectures could be dry, so going to class can be a challenge, especially early in the morning. He's a good guy; his class is a little tough, but you'll learn, so right on.

As long as you do what is expected of you, you will do fine. Yes, you do need to read the textbook outside of class, but as long as you take notes and pay attention, you will do well on tests. Participate! It makes it more fun. He makes sure you understand, and brings up very interesting subjects. he's a GREAT professor!

Dr. Wolfe is tough, but he is fair and if you pay attention, go to class, and review the material and textbook regularly it will all pay off. Most importantly, you will KNOW the material, and the stuff he's teaching is VERY interesting (even in you're not planning on going into psychology). I highly recommend this teacher. Great class, awesome prof

Very good professor. Took him for the capstone class. No textbook, but about 3-5 articles to be read each week. Each article also needed 2 questions/comments pertaining to the article to be turned in on Mondays. Discussion based classes over readings. A rather involved presentation with paper to follow. 1 exam over readings, and no formal final :)

He was a very nice person and I really enjoyed the discussion based class. The tests were all based off of lecture notes, I actually stopped reading the textbook halfway through and didn't have any difficulty. His tests were very very tricky because of multiple multiple choice as opposed to content.

He is very helpful, but the exams are very very hard to pass. All of class all he talks about is experiments, he doesnt ever talk about the book, but expects you to read every chapter. He rambles a lot and gets off topic

I really liked this professor. He was always very nice and energetic about the lecture. He mainly talks about experiments, but it is helpful to read each chapter. The exams are tough, but definitely manageable if you study - especially the lecture notes. There is one quiz per week, but he doesn't announce which day it is on.

He is a very good professor, he loves what he teaches and it shows. I have heard the tests are hard, my advice is to read the book and take the little quizzes after each section. Other than that just pay attention in class and take notes!

Overall I thought the class was interesting. Prof Wolfe is an interesting and funny professor but tests are hard. Reading the textbook is essential to success.

Professor Wolfe's class is generally easy. 3 exams, one paper, and 2 short assignments. He generally gives full credit if you do the assignments. Most exam questions come from material talked about in class (not in book) so if you want a good grade you have to come to class. Plus he gives random 5 easy point worksheets about once a week)

I loved this professors take on things. Does not do boring lectures. In class goes through experiments done and then talks about what to take away from it. Does have pop quizzes but is an easy grader on them as long as you show you know some things from class. A few tests that are pretty hard but the rest of the class assignments are easy As.

Super easy class if you do the work. He does expect you to put more time in reading-wise than some other classes, but as long as you do it should be an easy A. He does not put up with any excuses, but is a very approachable and friendly guy outside of class. If you don't understand something he is more than willing to help you outside of class.

Dr. Wolfe is himself. He is funny and friendly and loves teaching. He learns everyone's names and works hard to make class different each day. Overall, I would say this is a very good class and would definitely suggest taking it.

He is a good professor and loves what he teachers. I wish I would have studied more for this class. He lectures in a way that is easy to understand. He doesn't have very much homework though, so that's nice. I wish he would've given are tests back, but he only lets you come look at them during his office hours.

Prof. Wolfe is a sold choice for Psych 101. He is a good professor and is very knowledgeable. Be prepared to do lots of reading and take lots of notes. The tests are tough, and sometimes it's hard to say what's going to be on them. He has pop quizzes once a week. They are just for credit and basically boost your grade if you show up to class.

MAKE SURE TO READ THE BOOK!! Tests are a mix of lecture material and textbook info (not discussed in class). Weekly pop quizzes are given, but you'll get 5/5 as long as you turn something in. Participate in experiments as early as possible to get them out of the way.

Professor Wolfe is an AMAZING professor!! Would definitely take this course again! He always makes lecture interesting and tries to make you laugh. Truly a genuine guy that is willing to help if you read the book and put in effort. Participate in class and youll have a great experience!

Great professor! Makes classes very interesting and applicable. I learned how to learn from this class. I took this class 2 years ago and I still use all the studying and note taking techniques he teaches. Dr. Wolfe backs everything he teaches with research and does a great job introducing students to real practical psychology. Again great prof!!

He is a great professor.

This class is 90% lectures, but I find them very interesting because the way Wolfe presents the content. He will always bring up the textbook, even though there's very few test questions from the book. If you miss a lecture, get notes, because writing lecture notes down is how you'll do good on tests. He also assigns some readings and papers.

He always makes lecture so interesting-very discussion based. Attendance is not mandatory but he does give random quizzes that you get credit just for being there. You have to read to textbook for exams but it is not difficult at all. Tests are usually not that difficult. He genuinely cares about his students' learning!

I had Professor Wolfe for PSY101 and overall, it was a good class. There are 4 exams including the final and they were all pretty difficult! If you dont read the textbook, you wont get a good grade on the exams. Not a bad thing, you just definitely need to study a fair amount in this class. Overall, I would take him again!

Very smart guy. Makes learning easy and is very good at teaching. Highly recommend.

I took psychology in high school adn this was still a class worth taking. I liked him and it wasn't too hard. Plus I think the class is jsut interesting even if you aren't a psych major.

He is a great professor, we read a couple of academic papers a week which is better than having to purchase textbooks.

You had to read 2-3 research articles each week and give three detailed questions for each article. Be ready to attend class because it is a discussion-based course and it is worth 150 points! You have one midterm exam to which he gives the exact questions that are on the exam, one group presentation, and a final paper. Definitely an easy A!

Professor Wolfe was my favorite professor this semester. He is highly motivated to teach the content, is very open to student's opinions, and wants you to succeed. If you have the chance to take this class I highly recommend you learn so much useful learning tactics and the class is overall very enjoyable.

Professor Wolfe is really intelligent and is great at teaching the material. Attendance isn't required but it is crucial for learning as notes aren't posted all at once. He is by no means boring and one of the first professors where I have paid attention the entire class period for the entire semester. Only downside is, the tests are tricky.

Great professor! Long lectures, but he is sure to keep them interesting. His tests were difficult, but he is always willing to help out. He does not takw attendance but will give the exact answers to essay questions on exams during in class discussion. Very discussion based, but will not call on you if you don't have your hand raised.

Professor Wolfe makes the lectures engaging, but the exams can be rough. Thankfully, unstuck ai's practice questions and personalized study plans really helped me prepare. Participate in class discussions - he looks for active responses. Overall, an interesting course if you put in the work.
