she is a great teacher you just have 2 writting assigments and two take home test.reaaly fun class
Easy as HELL! your midterm and final are take home. Even though i got a 64%.
Very easy class, midterm and final are take home, only two writing assignments and a decent amount of extra credit.
omg take her she is soooooooooooooooooooooo easy!
Best class ever! Everyone should take it. I always looked forward to class and didn't mind sitting through 4 and a half hours in my summer session. Easy, Easy, Easy! and you will LOVE the things you learn.
She was a great teacher lol but i guess i have problem sleepin in class anyways... you get to meet a lotta cool ppl and her daughter is hot :p
Easiest class i have took...the only thing is you need to show up too class...there are two tests and they are take home...if you cant get a A in this class well then something is wrong with you...
Awesome class. So very easy if you show up and do the 2 tests and 2 papers she asks for. Attendance is like 20 points and it's fun to go to class. The papers are WAY easy too, you can just watch a movie and write about it and you will get full credit.
This class was very fun and i learned alot from what she lectured on. If you tend to get imbarrased when the talk in about sex and the world of it then you might not want to take her as she does joke around and does certain gestures that immitate sex. Very fun class
Very easy class! I got an A! If I could do it, who couldn't? Class is based on 2 take home exams, 2-3 writing assignments, attendance and daily response sheet. I missed 3 days of class, did OK on the take home exams, and had a C+ towards the end of the class, and did 3 extra credit and boosted my grade to nearly 100%! *DON'T BUY THE TEXT, USE
I loved that class! I knew alot going in and still learned a great deal. She has lots of guest speakers so she keeps it interesting. She has 2 take home tests and 2 essays but she gives so many points for just showing up I didn't do the essays and still got a B. Great class, I reconmmend it for everyone! :)
this class is amazing. Olga is a wonderful professor, and nothing is off limits with this class. dont be shy to ask questions. i didnt take one note the entire semester. there are a few take home tests and a few papers, and a ton of extra credit. i loved it so much that i am in the advanced class. best class ever.
She is fantastic! She talks about everything you can imagine related to sex. There are 2 take-home tests and 2 assignments. You will use the book just for the tests. Really nice and easy A.
Took this class in summer and pretty much enjoyed listening to ejectulations and penatrations :D There are 2 take home test and a couple of essays. Also 4 hrs of class is SOO tiring. You guys should see the last 2 hrs of class...all quiet and sleepy =O
This should be a mandatory class for all college students. Learned so much. Guest speakers are incredible... teacher is fantastic. Never took any notes, attendance alone will help you pass. Turn in questions/comments for points at the end of each class that she reads aloud the next class to answer your questions -- very funny and informative!
easy class. but i can't take having her for 4-5 hours a day. other than that she's great.
i loved her class shes such a great teacher.. don't buy the textbook if there is one.. you'll never use it.. she is fun and her tests are easy..
she is the best teacher for human sexuality! she's amazing and has a lot of information. you really enjoy guest speakers too! EASY A!
If you like to be lectured at for hours on end then you will love this class. I fell asleep after the first ten minutes. Class geared towards naive people
This is VERY easy class, but it is super long! She never lets you out early, but her classes are interesting for the most part and she's pretty funny. Attendance is mandatory though! Tests are @ home and there are only 2 really easy papers...this class is a piece of cake!
VERY easy.DO NOT buy the book, you ONLY need it for the 2take home tests, so use the library's copy) & 2easy essays.Attendance is mandatory,but lectures are fun and guest speakers are awesome.Only gripe is I did not learn much from her. She is very nice & animated, but if u have EVER taken a sex-ed course(even in youth),u will likely learn nothing.
I was already sexually knowledgeable and open but this class opened my mind and educated me above and beyond what I could have imagined. She's awesome! The guest speakers are awesome! The class is a lot of fun- HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER! IF YOU TAKE PSYCH/SOC165 TAKE IT WITH OLGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are better of taking a workshop on how to improve your sex life. I felt like I was in a junior high sex education class. She does not teach anything beneficial or relevant. I wanted to learn about psychology and the way it relates to human sexuality - as described in the text (Which is great) - Not how to jack my boyfriend off.
She is knowledgeable of the class, but managed to make a fun subject boring. Attendance is mandatory and she is extremely picky about laptops which is a drag for those of us who use laptops. She locks the doors to punish late students and humiliates students with cell phones out, which is fairly immature behavior for a college professor.
This class was awesome! People who talk badly about it obviously didn't attend class or have respect for not using cell phones in class. The guest speakers are great! You don't need to take notes... they are online for download. You don't need the book, just look up take-home test questions online. The class is AMAZING!
AWESOME IN EVERY WAY! It opens you up and you learn so much about yourself. Take her advance class,you take field trips. She is super nice and helpful if you need to talk to her. Meeting people is super easy in her class. Would take it again. She is amazing at what she does. No book, hw or tests and about 6-9 essays but super easy to do.
She is so awesome. Its good to attend class because you get 15 points per attended class. 5pts for the first half and 5pts for the second half of class. and 5pts for a worksheet. you get awesome guest speakers. just a good class to take. there is 2 exams and 2 written papers. very easy a
awesome teacher, loved the class! Only class where ive attended every day! Take her :)
Amazing professor, will answer any and all of your questions,she doesn't bog the class down with useless HW all the tests are take home, she is a great teacher and it seems her highest priority is to make sure everyone who wants to learn has the chance to. I'm taking the advanced human sexuality course this fall.
Olga is awesome! she made class fun, shes is hilarious! attendance is mandatory If you read the book and do good on the online tests, turn in every evaluation sheet, and do the essays on time youll get an A
her class can be kind of awkward but it can be a fun class. she's super easy except her online chapter quizzes can be kind of time consuming because you are scheming through the book to find the answers. her final, and writing assignments were pretty easy if you follow the guidelines. sometimes her lecture gets super boring.
She is AMAZING !! if this is your first semester in college this is THE CLASS to take.. Prof.Olga is super helpfull and willing to help everyone out and give you awesome advice on sexuality.. chapter quizzes are time consuming but overall you will love this class
Very helpful and approachable teacher. Lectures can get boring however. Never thought I would get bored during a class about sex... Even though it is boring at times I learned A TON from this class. Its a must take and an easy A
Easy class, consists of 18 quizzes and 2 easy papers. Boring lecture, but guest speakers makes class very interesting. Easy A
I loved olga. she was a great teacher and she made class really interesting. if you look at the book while you take the quizzes, they're cake. all the speakers (porn star, BDSM, cross dresser, etc) are FANTASTIC. take her class!!
So fun. Got to talk to interesting panels of people who came in on related topics. Very informal. MANDATORY READING AND ATTENDANCE. no real exams only online mini quizzes, so you HAVE to read. solely based on the book. go to class EASY points.
From a conservative POV, I got tired of hearing body parts. And class was pretty boring, I fell asleep almost in every class unless there was a guest speaker. Besides that, 18 online quizzes; 2hrs each. 3 papers, and up to 2 for ec. No need to take notes. No midterm or final. Attendance is mandatory, lose 5 points of every half missed class. Easy A
best teacher ever! her class is so much fun. you never use the book just for home quizzes. she gives you two chances for each one. if you do the quizzes online and go to class its the easiest class. only get two essays for hw the whole semester and they're really easy. she's fun, happy, and funny. loved the speakers.gives extra credit. TAKE IT!!
I loved taking her class! She is so nice and does not make it awkward at all. Definitely recommend her.
Such a fun teacher. Helps open up your mind and gives you different perspectives. Class was humorous and informative, encourages you to be happy about your sexuality and explore. Interesting topics and even guest speakers visit the class
She was great! Shared a little too much info at times but other than that (and the fact that the class was so long) no complaints. Online tests are a piece of cake, reaction papers arent difficult, and extra credit really boosts up your final grade. Her guest speakers rocked! Would recommend.
EASY CLASS! You only need to attend to lectures and take online quizzes that are open book. A lot of opportunities for extra credit and only simple papers the entire semester. She brings a lot of speakers what makes it really interesting. Definitely take this class, EASY A!
Human sexuality is a very interesting topic, especially with Olga. She engages us with various speakers throughout the course. Helps whenever she can. Easy class overall. Just attend class and take online quizzes that are open book.
I love Olga! She is one of my favorite teacher in OCC . Just need to be in class , do all quizzes which are open book and you will get an A easy .
Interesting class. All you do is learn about how to become comfortable with your sexuality and how to improve your own sex life. Easy peasy A!
Took this class in the summer. It is SO EASY. Textbook is only used for the quizzes online (open book, 15 questions, 1 hr time limit.) Just get an online version to search and find answers or rent a textbook for $30. DO NOT BUY FOR FULL PRICE. Lectures can get boring but class consists of 2 reaction papers and 15 (+1 syllabus quiz) chapter quizzes.
TIP: If you are taking it in the summer, just go to the OCC library, check out the textbook for a few hours (since its on reserve), and take the chapter quizzes there. Or just take pics of the chapter. That way, you won't need to buy the textbook. Or take the class with a pal and share the book. Book is ONLY for online quizzes so yeah.
Olga was a fabulous teacher, her lectures had a profound affect in my life. Her class taught me many things, one being comfortable in my own skin! Love her outlook on life, and her open-mindedness to the world! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, she is amazing!
If you like the subject you will enjoy the class. It is super long and can get tedious. I used the class time to study for other classes. It is a for sure A so take it for that reason.
I firmly stand by making her human sexuality class a requirement for everyone. I learned so much! Not only about my own anatomy but about different lifestyles and I left her class with a very open mind. I definitely enjoyed her class and i recommend it to everyone! Its super easy and possible to get over 100%. She offers extra credit.
AVOID IF YOU ACTUALLY WANT TO LEARN SOMETHING ABOUT HUMAN SEXUALITY. Just awful. Yes this class is an easy A, but if You would learn absolutely nothing about sexuality. This class was all about politics, society, advertising adult films, clubs, products, etc. and a little bit of simple sex ed that everyone learned in middle school !
Olga Cox is one of the most outstanding College Professors to date. Not only does her class really educates you, she personally has an in-depth extensive knowledge of subject matters s. She encourages students to think for themselves, actually learn the information at hand. She is fair, supportive and dedicated. She is serious about her Profession.
Kind, great lecturer, interesting, approachable. A+
One of the worst teacher ever
My heart breaks that people are protesting her. Olga was by far the best teacher I have EVER had! Her class completely changed my outlook on life and even inspired me to change career paths. She truly cares for all her students. She always made her classroom a friendly and open environment for students to freely ask questions and seek help from her
Very easy A class. No midterm or final. Open book online quizzes, you can also google the answers. Remember to not exit the page once quiz is opened it will automatically submit if you leave the page. Attendance is mandatory as half your grade is based on response papers given in class. Friendly class and fun and quite easy
Loved her class, she made the topic fun, interesting, and at times, hilarious. The speakers were great and she created a friendly and open learning environment.
Course: Easy A, quizzes are online and open book with plenty time to complete. You must attend lectures, not to learn but because you can only miss a couple classes/be late a small number of times. Teacher: She will push her beliefs onto everyone in the class. She assumes everyone is leftist and believes her opinions are the only opinions.
I took the winter intersession class, and it was very easy to get an A. Olga is an awesome professor who is passionate about psychology (she's also a therapist as a side business) and passionate about her students. She's extremely caring and knowledgeable. Overall, I'm very happy I took her for psychology 100. Would definitely take her again!
Great professor! Interesting lectures. Easy A. Very inspiring
I just want to mention that you will be subjected to guest speakers with no professional prestige, yet the entitlement to preach & promote their liberal agenda. If you provide evidence to counter their unsupported claims, Olga will jump in and deflect, then attempt to associate you with conservatives, who are in her mind, inherently hateful.
She is the EASIEST class I've ever taken. You actually learn a lot and she has a fun way of teaching. You will never be bored. Its a very chill class. Don't really do much. Looked forward to going to this class. EASY A. TAKE HER U WONT REGRET IT. She is a great teacher!
I love this class. You can really learn a lot of things that can be used in real life and relationships. She makes her lecture simple and fun. Assignments are very easy in this class. No midterm or final just weekly quizzes. A lot of extra credit opportunities. Participation is very important. Shes also strict with using phone during the class.
Cool teacher. Only thing you're being graded on is the quizzes online and participation points(show up to class). Easy A.
Easy A. The tests and especially the Midterm were extremely easy. Just study the flashcards and you'll get a guaranteed A. My issue is with the political climate in the classroom, and the extreme hostility towards conservative (even moderate) views. I feel targeted and unwelcomed whenever political discussion arises. Many students agree.
Easy class, no exams, just online quizzes and a couple short papers 2-3 pages max. Laptops and phones are not allowed. This teacher is extremely insecure so be wary of bringing up anything that might offend her.
Easy A. Even though one lecture takes 3 or more hours, I could learn a lot from her. So interested class!!
youre graded only on weekly online quizzes, participation (2-3 sentences abt what u learned in each lecture), and 2 one page papers. super easy. it can get pretty boring tbh. attendance is taken at the beginning and end and youre deducted 10 points for skipping class. overall a pretty easy class and some lectures were very interesting.
There may be many extra credit opportunities. She likes to invite many guest speakers to this class. Students have to submit class participation paper for each class. It takes about half of the grade, and quizzes due on Sundays and 2 reaction paper take the other half. She uses many slides and goes so fast. It may be hard to take every note.
Dont understand how this teacher was nominated for Faculty award. What a joke! Overly sensitive and if you want to learn anything, I would highly suggest you take another class. If youre looking for an easy A take her.
Olga,is an awesome teacher ,lectures are sometimes boring and some are interesting. Weekly exams are easy ,open book. 2 essay papers 1-2pages. Will take her again.
Olga was a really good professor just a little too political at times. I know she's had issues with people of opposing views in the past. If you are easily triggered this is NOT the class for you. You learn a lot in her class. Attendance is mandatory.
Olga is a professor that really cares about her students success. As long as you attend class, pay attention and aren't on your phone you'll pass the class. there is also guest speakers which keeps the class interesting. it is a heavy lecture - however she doesn't mind if you raise your hand to ask questions. she is always available in office hours
I truly felt changed after learning so much about human sexuality in the open way she lectured and brought in extremely interesting and thoughtful guest speakers. She puts an amazing amount of effort into her class despite having such a large class size. She is probably one of the most knowledgeable people in the world on human sexuality.
ouch! Careful - subjective and very little from texts. Most of the stuff she spews is subjective and passes it on as facts. Her delivery however is excellent with passion and conviction. I can see why so many students who have not developed their critical thinking abilities can take everything in as facts. Just agree in class and get atleast a B.
Olga makes it very easy to get an A. There is 80 points extra credit! No exams, 2 easy essays, and weekly quizzes are online and open book so I just found the answers and got A's. Each class is worth 20 points for attendance. Lectures are kind of boring since she just reads her slides but the guest speakers were interesting.
I love Olga, she has helped me as well as several others I know with so much. Great professor and she makes you feel safe in her classroom.
Racist teacher, avoid
Don't, just don't.
Political
Showed us Youtube videos for half of the class time (stuff from TedEd but still, why am I paying college tuition to watch Youtube?). Also super, inconsiderately rigid attendance policy--SHE DID NOT EXCUSE MY ABSENCE FOR A NIGHT CLASS EVEN THOUGH MY 2-YEAR-OLD SON HAD SURGERY THE NEXT MORNING AT 7AM. That experience kinda soured me on her entirely.
She forces you to subscribe to her beliefs if you want to pass. This is indoctrination and she should be investigated.
She hates Trump and uses lies about him in her class
Not a good teacher at all. AVOID AT ALL COST
Wanna hear about how she hates you if you voted for Trump. Take her class and you can hear about it twice per week. A waste of time!
teacher is very problematic. Outdated concepts on sexuality. Avoid at all cost, absolute waste of time. Should not be teaching sexuality if you haven't had any yourself
