For DaPrato, I had to study soooo much. His tests are multiple choice, but they can be such detailed questions. He goes at a fast pace and 95% of his lecture is from the book, so you don't have to be at full attention during class.

Mr. Daprato is an excellent teacher. Very straight forward. If you're in a group discussion with him, he's like a therapist only in a teacher role. You practically have to be a slacker to fail his intuitive classes. Common sense and participation recomm'd

Excellent Teacher

Good teacher, very friendly and very into group discussions. Tests are hard. He's very easy to talk to.

Not everyone did well in this class.I did not always attend but did fine.To do good, always read the chapters right before the test, go to the books site online & studyed the flash cards (its fast & easy). He's nice and keeps the class lively with his quarky personality.Be careful about being late

GREAT teacher. He makes lectures interesting and fun. Really comes across like he enjoys teaching. Take any one of his classes. The test are straight forward and his study guide help alot. Best prof. at Solano.

Mr. D is hella funny

He doesn't give homework, and if you read the book, the tests are a walk in the park. I thought the lectures were very interesting, and I thought he was a good teacher. But you do have to read the book, the people who didn't did poorly on the tests.

i ahd a blast and im taking all of daprato's courses if possible!

this guys mad funny. Take notes, you'll be fine. Do the extra credit essay.

He was so funny and had lots of usefull information. I learned so much!

the only class where watching**** is ok. gotta love it! if you do the work youll be fine.

The class itself is very interesting. However, DaPrato's style is very boring, especially for somebody who doesn't like lecture, since that is ALL he does during class. Although, he gives absolutely no homework, which makes this a very easy class. Just show up, take good notes, ace the 4 tests and there's your grade.

Course work stays in the class. Test are multiple choice with 5 essay questions. Straight froward.

I think this class is pretty easy. All he does is lecture by using power point which is from the book. You don't need to go to class to get an A. Just READ the book thoroughly and u'll be fine. The test is challenging but his A is 85% and up. If you're the type of person who likes to read the book, then this class is for you

Great teacher. funny and keeps the class interesting. he's a big reason why im a psych major. tests MC/short answer essay; based on power point exactly like book. highlighted book as he lectured from porjector; so no note taking with book. although you dont need book if takes notes from power point. No HW or papers. highly recommened his class.

Lectured right out of the text. Material is packaged and presented smoothly, tests can be difficult if you don't study hard. Just be there and pay attn.

awesome very funny altough he is a pretty hard teacher but his class was alot of fun, take human sexuality with him, he taught that class very well and made it fun and not embarassing.

He is fair but this class is hard!!! He teaches out of the book. There are 4 tests and one 7-10 page written extra credit project. Tests are 60 multiple choice questions worth 2 points each and 2 essay questions worth 10 points each. Study hard, do ALL the reading and go to class everyday. By the end of the semester only 1/3 of the class remained.

hes a good teacher i recommend him......

Take every note and read every word in the book! It will be on the test, so study hard. The extra credit assignment is highly recommended. At the end of the semester, more than half of the class dropped.

HE IS ONE OF THE BEST pSYCHOLOGY TEACHERS THERE. MATERIAL WAS VERY INTERESTING AND EASY TO UNDERSTAND

Great teacher! I really enjoyed this class however, it was far from easy. Reading the book is mandatory if you want to pass and knowing the vocab is a must. Each test has essay questions which you get ahead of time to prepare. It takes a lot of work but very worth it if you're a psych major. If not you may want to take a different teacher.

I really liked his class. I think that students don't like him because they aren't ready for the class. The reading isn't hard, if you want to know what's going on, you should read. As long as you take good notes during class, you'll pass. Honestly, all you have to do is be a "good" student. Read. Take notes. Participate. I highly recommend him.

Really enjoyed his class, it was hard but as long as you study for the tests and read the text you will do fine.

All he does is lecture. Everything is based on the book and he tells you to read the modules (chapters) the night before he goes over them, which I think is more helpful. His tests are pretty hard and I always hear students complaining but you really just need to pay attention. HE'S AN EXCELLENT PROFESSOR. really knows his subject. he is tough tho.

My favorite professor at Solano. He has an odd sense of humor that I loved.

I hadn't been in college in a long time. I prety much did what he said to do; took notes, I showed up for class (many notes not in textbook), used the online questions and tried not to cram. I answered the essays completely and I did well on the tests. I don't have a lot of college experience to compare him to, but I liked the info and the class.

He's a really good teacher and for the most part the class is easy. There are alot of terms to remember, so the key for me was to make flash cards and I did great!! As long as you know that defintions and understand them you'll do great.

Daprato was a pretty cool teacher. Tests came from all material reviewed as long as you read and do online quizzes as suggested you can do well in this class. He has a funny sense of humor though. Good class overall.

I LIKE HIM, AT FIRST HE SEEMED A LITTLE HARSH AND I OVER HERD ANOTHER STUDENT SAYING THEY THOUGHT HIS HUMOR WAS A BIT TO RAUNCHY.. BUT HE MAKES LEARNING FUN AND INTERESTING. HES VERY FLEXIBLE AND EASY TO TALK TO.

He is amazing and very understanding when things in your life happen. Flexible and interesting in class. I recommend him to anyone. His test are simple if you just read the text. If you buy he study guide for the book you will pass with good grades on the test.

Funny teacher. the website for the book he uses is actually very helpful for tests. lots of power points but what he covers on the power points is basically in the book. nonetheless Daprato makes learning about psychology interesting. one of my favorite classes last semester :)

He was great. Any Questions you have he will answer. you have to read focus to get it all but overall is great. He gives exactly what will be on the test and it is broken up so you know what to study and focus on. Over all I Love him!!! Take him, But be prepared to work not a slack off class. but in the End youll end up loving Psychology!!!

Interesting class. As long as you show up, follow directions, and do the readings it is an easy A. Lots of extra credit available as well. He is helpful if you approach him with a specific question or problem, he will help find a solution.

He is very funny and his class was always fun and interesting. I would take it again if I could. Don't worry about the online homework its only extra credit and if you read the book the tests are a piece of cake.

Professor Daprato is a really down to earth teacher. He likes to tell stories and get people involved in his class. His test are a little hard but if you use the book and website you should be fine.

DO ALL/ MOST OF THE ONLINE HOMEWORK. At the end of the semester it is all counted as extra credit! Obviously he expects you to read the chapters, but they can be interesting topics. If you want an A you need to write a 7 page research essay (if I remember right). It's a piece of cake and I wrote it in about 2 days. Passed with an A.

I don't know why he has negative reviews because I thought he was really good. He was also into the lectures and was not boring at all. I thought he was hilarious whenever he would joke around. The only thing that I did not like was that I paid $100 for the book and an extra $80 on the online work (which there is an E-BOOK on there).

I took Introduction to Psychology and enjoyed his class. He is really engaging and interactive, which made the class fun. All you have to do is pay attention to lectures, take notes and and act like you're genuinely engaged in class discussions. You will do fine on the tests if you read your book.
