Energetic,friendly,kind, and helpful!!
She's very clear on everything, and she helps you understand the criteria in a fun way. So energetic and fun. Great teacher. If you decide to take Psychology, take her as your teacher!
she's awesome. she made psychology fun... maybe that's why i changed my major to psych. she's pretty easy too... she's sweet, friendly and funny. ur gonna love her class. everyone did!
very educated in the topic and extremely enthusiastic. makes class fun and eager to learn.
Enthusiastic, friendly, and helpful. She encourages her students to step out of their comfort zone and participate in more classroom activities. She is fun, and is willing to make the class fun. Tests were easy, and you didn't really need to study to get A's and B's on them. Excellent teacher. Would recommend highly for psych 34: human sexual beh.
Easiest teacher in Psych Dept. probably. The best. I looked around and asked about 20 people and they said this was the most modern teacher to take for any class she teaches.

I took Psych1 with her my first year at Solano. I wouldn't recommend her to anyone. She wanted to use a different book then the rest of the department, so it was brand new, and then decided not to use it the next semester. Also, ususally if the teacher sucks the book is good so you can coach yourself, not true. Book sucked. She taught straight from the book. I don't know hopefully she has changed, but I am an A student and I managed to get a C in her class. And I do mean manage.
Mrs. Bolz is hella cool... She funny, and easy to comprehend... She's smart and knows what she's talking about. I highly suggest takin class with her. Her accent might be a little difficult to comprehend at first.. But u will get used to it.
Sabine is an awesome teacher. She has very recent experience with the psych field.
I took psychology with her last year. She makes the subject for you very easy. Multiple choice, easy questions in the test helps the students pass the test. She is funny, interesting, and friendly. I am an A students, and i got easily in her class.
She is a great teacher. She keeps things interesting and her accent is great too. As much as you would think talking about the brain is boring, she makes everything she teaches fun.
The easiest teacher at Solano. She lets you use notes on the tests and the assignments/quizzes are extremely easy to do. Just show up sometimes and do the review sheets and you'll easily get at LEAST a B
Ms. Bolz is awesome, she's very easy to talk to both in and out of class. She made the materials easy to follow and was not judgmental of anyone's feelings towards human sexual behavior.
Ms. Bolz is very nice and understanding, but if you've taken psychology classes before you might get extremely bored in this class! This is a class that should only be for beginning psychology students in my opinion.
very nice, but can talk to much. You may get a little sleepy in class.
Although the class was way too easy for someone who'd taken psych in high school, she was a great teacher. She really explained the brain and nervous system well, and she made everything interesting. She was extremely easy going and kind.
This class was very easy to get an A in, I honestly didn't learn very much though. She is a fun teacher and brings up interesting topics to discuss in class.
Very fair and helpful. Keeps students on topic. Doesn't cut class short, gives you what you are there for. She is a very smart lady. German accent is not a problem to understand. I would take her again
I liked Bolz. she was obvioulsy knowledgeable in pyschology; however, she is quite boring because she mostly lectures. you can easily get an A if you read the text and have good notetaking skills.
She is a very nice lady, grades fairly. The class is sooooooooooooo boring. And her test are weird, their not straight forward. But if you can get past that, then its fine.
no comments
it's very easy to get an A in the class because she teaches pretty slow, and alot of extra credits. Sometimes she talks too much and students who have their hand up have to wait up to 10 minutes for her to finish her point, and then say what they wanted to say. The tests are not too hard if you read, since they're based on the book.
GREAT TEACHER!!! Funny, enjoys helping students. Tests take a bit of time to get use to (scenarios and blank is to blank as...) Overall WONDERFUL. I would have loved to take another class of hers if I needed it.
Shes a nice teacher. Discussions are interesting but totally off topic sometimes. I would have liked more lectures pertaining to tests and quizes so we would have been more prepared. The book teaches you more. Most test questions are off of the companion site.
Prof. Bolz is the best teacher I have ever had. If you have qeustions she is happy to answer them and will even spend time after class discussing them with you. If you are interested in human sexual behavior or how humans work than I would take her.
Her tests are waaay easy. Every exam including the final is multiple choice. Attendance isn't mandatory so as long as you do the reading, you should do well. Her lessons reinforce the reading and she will sometimes mix it up with group activities. Fun teacher and very easy class.
I really like Professor Bolz because he talked about every day issues and illustrate how they could relate to the topic we were studying. I really feel she was fair, interesting, and connected the subject to real world issues. Her test were not easy, so do not get the wrong message from the previous comment because you do need to study.
She is very passionate about her profession. Incredibly cheery and excited to teach her students. You are expected to pay attention, but it is not that difficult to do. She makes references to issues going on today that relate to psychology and she also has plenty of examples and different videos to help the students.
One of the best teachers I've had!
I took 2 psych classes with Prof Bolz, psych 1 and 34. Next semester I take psych 5 with her. She is smart and funny. Always comes to class with an upbeat attitude. i learned so much about psychology and she knows a lot of other subject like philosophy.
She is a great teacher and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fun, educational class.
Everything about this class is excellent if you're into psychology. Excellent teacher. Excellent learning material. Excellent ideas for quizzes/tests/projects. Just excellent.
She's wonderful, fun and enegertic! One of the best teachers I've had
She is a great psychology teacher. Psych 5 is a very low maintaince class. the class works together in teams and teacher each other. The quizes/tests are always multiple choice and they are all common sense questions. VERY easy to pass this class with knowledge to gain. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
This class is very easy but also very boring. She doesn't lecture, so you are left to read the book all the time. The lectures are very dry. Great down to earth person, just a very boring class.
Take her for psych!
she is very nice and personal, this class was based on sexual development and she made me feel very comfortable and is easy to open up to. very unjudgemental and professional. take her class!
Sweet and funny, kept the class interesting. Her tests weren't hard and she was a forgiving teacher.
Great Professor. Keeps class interesting. Interacts with class. Fair tests. All you need to do is read the material, and participate in class and you will walk away with a good grade.
Professor Bolz was an awesome teacher. I was stuck behind some guys who were constantly talking to each other, but still managed to do well. If you study the material you should do fine. I loved how positive and supportive she was in general.
I'm a psych major and have taken several psych classes and she is by far my favorite teacher. She makes class so interesting and lets the class teach and interact which is really nice. She is really sweet and helpful if you have questions. Definitely recommend !!!!!
I would say she teaches in a crappy manner. Most of her lectures doesn't cover what has to be on the test and the test itself have questions that don't relate to assigned chapters. You're left with reading and taking notes from the book all semester long. What huge disappointment this teacher has to be.
I wouldn't recommend anyone to take her is you have to study the whole book. Her lectures doesn't cover what is needed to be on the test and her questions are confusing and misleading. My class average was in the D range. Take another psych teacher who is actually diligent and allows you to keep test.
I definitely enjoyed this class! Anybody who is receiving under a C obviously isn't studying AT ALL! She is a great teacher who is very helpful and also funny too. I reccommend this class to anybody who is taking psych 1. Great teacher...taking her again!
It's high school psychology all over again. She took attendance only on the 1st day. You really only need to attend to find out what day her next almost-weekly quiz will be & what chapter it'll be on. Other than that, take her! Easy A!
Honestly, she's a pretty good teacher. Her tests are straightforward and if you study, you will pass this class with ease. People that say she is hard are just lazy. Literally, I studied like 15 minutes for each test and I have a 94% in the class. Only downside is sometimes she talks to you like you are a baby. That can get a bit annoying.
She's nice & all, but lectures can be dry. Study a lot & read the textbook, then you should be fine. Slacked off in the beginning of the semester, then changed & aced the last two tests. Still got a C, ohh well. I passed
Bolz is one of the nicest teachers I have ever had. She is incredibly cheerful, and always comes to class with a smile. Obviously passionate about psyc, loves discussions and questions. Tests aren't terribly difficult if you study, textbook reading is a must.
I don't like the class. Dry vague lectures every period. I had to study the text book and take notes for hours and I still got a C ? I actually deserve at least a B because I learned a lot of things from her lectures and textbooks it's just she rewords her exam and make it really tricky.
I don't like the subject and the way she grades. It seems unfair to give someone a low grade if they studied hard utilizing the textbook, lectures, and study guides. The only thing I liked is her personality.
VEry easy class!she gives u out a paper wit the pages u need 2 read.nd tht helps alot since u wont have 2 read the entire chapter or whole text book. always gives out mini test. which is kinda like the only "extra credit" youll have since she doesnt giv out ne. The exams r common sense.but lectures r way borin. shell call u out if shee c'z u textn
The class was too mechanical. Most of her questions from exams came from this website called cengage and it does not seem to cover what was in lecture. I heard most people get at least Bs,Cs or lower in her class. She could have made the exams easier if she makes her own test that are more understandable and easier.
Easy class for an easy A, but not what I was expecting. She rambles in class and none of her class discussions are on the exam. Class discussions were a waste of time that I could have spent towards other classes.
If only I knew that her lectures doesn't cover the exams, then I would have done way better. Seemed like a pointless class. Not a fair grader at all. Her written portion for the test are only a tiny portion for your grade so worry more about the multiple choice portion because that is a huge factor for your grade.
Probably the most boring teacher I've ever had. None of her lectures cover the exam so its pretty much pointless to go to class. Most of what are on her tests are from the book so you have to take notes. But she's incredibly nice and she has a passion for teaching.
Apparantly, She is not a fair grader. Lectures don't cover the exam. You just have to read the book and take notes. Worry more about the multiple choice questions on the exam because they count WAY more than the essay (10%). Her class is meaningless. Just made up terms and definitions. She really don't talk about the mind or more about the brain.
I took Professor Bolz for Psych 1, Abnormal Psych and Human Sexual Behavior, I highly recommend her. I did not find the negative comments for her to be true, I learned a lot from her and found her classes challenging and interesting.
I didn't enjoy taking her class because I didn't like her teaching style. I liked that she is open minded and polite,but I found her most of her tests to be out of sync with the reading material and her grading scale was hard to follow. I emailed her about a question I had and she didn't respond until it was too late and I ended up loosing points.
An amazing teacher. Very easy to talk with. I recommend her to anyone interested in this class.
Very nice lady with an extremely structured outline for the class assignments. If you follow the plan, and do the reading, passing will be a breeze. Interesting topics are discussed, and the vibe in the room is very calm and comforting. Would highly recommend.
She seriously sings when she talks. This is an easy class but Bolz is extremely boring and I'm a psych major so that's pretty sad. You only have to show up on quiz days, the other days she usually only shows videos. Easy A
She rambles on in lecture, and doesn't really make sense. We have to read the chapter before we take a quiz every single week, she doesn't go over it first. When you don't understand something and ask for help, she doesn't really help you.
Quiz every week, so don't plan on skipping. You read assigned chapter, take quiz at the beginning of class the following week, AFTER the quiz she will lecture on that chapter, so stay on top of reading otherwise you wont pass quizzes. Midterm and Final both have take home parts to them, very important to do it well in order to pass.
Took her for Intro and Abnormal Psychology. She's very understanding and knows exactly what she's talking about. There's a lot of reading involved, and it's necessary because of weekly quizzes. Her lectures drag on and on, though. Most of the info is straight out of the book, so you're basically rereading everything. Homework and tests minimal.
Read the chapters or summaries .. don't count on power-point to pass but she gives a study guide for everything. Fun class! Show up, she'll notice. Also nice optional paper or project and final wasn't cumulative, multiple choice :) also gives weekly grade update if you're in class
If you're great at teaching yourself things and reading alone take this class. She makes you buy a clicker for quizzes, we've only used about 3 times. Shes doesnt use power point, only lectures & usually gets off topic and goes off into another discussion which can be frustrating.
Professor Bolz has a passion for what she teaches. Expect a quiz every week at the beginning of class. Lectures are straight forward and are from the book. She is very approachable and understanding. All dates are given for quizzes and such in the syllabus, so there are no surprises. I would definitely take another psychology class with her again.
Confusing and could get snappy when you asked for clarification. First day of the semester she encourages people to get up and move or do whatever it takes to stay focused. But two weeks later someone next to you will stretch and she will get angry.
I dont understand the point of talking about the chapter after you give a quiz on it. The study guides are there but its up in the air what she actually puts on the quiz. I studied a section that was big part of the study guide but she based the quiz off of a blip on the study guide.
Best class I've taken! Always looked forward to her class. She is very clear of the material she wants you to understand. Her test and quizzes are straight forward. Very approachable! She is cultured and love her sense of fashion! Would recommend her to anyone!
Human Sexuality. She lays out the entire semester in her syllabus, which I appreciated because there were no surprises. Her tests can be tough and you need to read the material before you get to class bc there are quizzes. Overall, I thought she was funny and very respectful, encouraging an open atmosphere for discussion and questions.
She is very excited about teaching, however I'm not sure if this should be her passion. She rambles on and on about nothing, and then shows brief slides and gives a test at the end of class. She doesn't respond to emails so don't count on that. She is not lenient. However, her personality is nice enough.
Let's see.. for me this class was very easy. EVERYTHING and I mean everything is from her power point slides. You obviously have to study to memorize the material (like any other college course). You also have to be in lecture to understand the slides though so that you can take notes. I didn't use the book at all. I recommend her for non-psych maj
Professor Bolz is a fun spirit. Her voice might take some time to get used to. I recommend doing the study guides and reading prior to class. She likes when students have read. Lectures are some what scrambled. Quizzes every Friday and the tests apply to life scenarios. offers little extra credit. Not a fan of the point system
Nice but very confusing. Gives power points and recommends you print and bring to class for note taking but works off of a completely different power point in class making it impossible to follow along. Gives a study guide, but quizzes don't match the study guide. Answers your questions with a question. Don't recommend if you value your sanity!!
Would not recommend Professor Bolz. Gets very upset over small things like using the bathroom and spends more time scolding the class about that then actually lecturing about psychology. She gives quizzes every week and the study guide she gives for the quizzes are not useful at all. Also is not helpful when you ask her questions, makes u feel dumb
Absolutely loved Professor Bolz. Took her for abnormal psyh. If you are looking for an easy A this wouldn't be your class. She likes participation and notices if you did the reading. If you try and are interested in the topic you will pass. Her study guides are great do them and use them and you will pass tests and quizzes.
Professor Bolz is an interesting character. Her lectures can be insightful at times but can then take a real turn towards becoming tired. Her weekly quizzes are a good grade booster but can also hurt your grade if you don't attend class. The class is essentially an easy "A" if you read the chapters and commit terms to memory.
One of the hardest teachers. Gets mad over small things like using the bathroom while she is talking. Will literally stop her lecture to embarrass you in front of the class for going to the bathroom or using your phone to check the time. Gives pop quizzes if she feels like it. MUST buy book for this class or you won't pass. She always uses the book
Make sure you do your readings
I decided to take psychology because of how much it interested me at one point, but after taking this class with this professor, I honestly might say I hate it. She lectures off the slides which are completely unorganized and hard to understand. Majority of the grade is based on exams after a few chapters. Do your own reading to pass. Many failed.
Take into consideration that she is from Germany. However, her PowerPoints are incredibly disorganized. She will get upset if you get up to go to the bathroom, she even said a classmate was "uncivilized" because he yawned. I learned a lot about the brain, though. The class itself was good, the professor wasn't.
Bolz class ,to me, was extremely boring, felt like the whole time she was off track of the lecture. Her slides were very disorganized and hard to pay attention to. You have to take the whole class into your own hands, read the book, take your own notes, and don't yawn without covering your mouth. 3 exams are your grade, assignments don't mean much.
Cultural Psychology. Professor Bolz is a great teacher. Classes are really interesting. Her classes require work, but she gives you the tools to succeed, and the amount of work helps you to learn. No textbook for Cultural Psychology, but you need to read articles. You can always talk to her after class too. One of my favorite teachers!
sweet german lady, very good explanations for confusing concepts; quiz given on PPT and you have about a minute for each question (on scantrons); loved the way the class was set up; make up of quizzes, a midterm, and a final.
I loved Professor Bolz! Dont be afraid to ask questions or seek clarification, she will absolutely help. She posts everything on Canvas so just make sure you keep up with the files she uploads. She gives lots of quizzes but they all count as extra credit so if you bomb one, dont worry. Keep up on the readings and youll be golden!
I love this professor! She is by far my favorite at Solano. She's very passionate about her job. The class consists of reading the text book, if you can not commit to reading then do not take her. She has quizzes and two exams but the study guides are online. If you study the study guide you will receive a passing grade.
Hands down, nicest teacher Iv had at Solano. Bolz cares about her students and is really passionate about her lectures. She teaches from her slides but the textbook is still required for a couple homework assignments + studying. If you can, take prof bolz you wont regret it.
Ms. Sabine wants to get to you on a personal level and can allow you to finish exams after class.
Took her for Psych001 in my first semester and I really enjoyed her. I took Abnormal Psych (psych005) my last semester, and enjoyed her even more. She is very passionate about psychology and is understanding to people's needs. Biggest stressor is term paper, but she helps you along the way. Tests are easy if you pay attention to lectures and read.
Worst teacher I have ever taken at Solano. She scolds the class majority of the time for not being prepared or on track. Her classes and lectures are so confusing and she is constantly changing the subject. Never let me make up any missing work even when I told her I had softball games. She doesn't set you up for success at all. Don't take her.
I personally love this Professor's drive to really teach you to where you understand the subject. Not many assignments besides the test and extra credit. If psychology is your major, she is an amazing instructor. Be aware, you need to really study your topics in order to do well on the exams.
So incredibly rude and has it out for student athletes. She once told me I was incompetent and that I should try and put more effort into her class like she knows I do on the softball field. Always had it out for me and other athletes. Scolded us if we missed class. Anytime I asked for help she left me feeling belittled and angry. Worst professor!
Only teacher at Solano for human sexuality, So you don't have a choice. She is very rude and her class was one of the most disorganize I ever have took. Do prepared to do a lot of reading and she does give pop quizzes. I felt grades weren't based off work, only if she likes you,lectures and power points are all over the place so be prepared!
some ppl in my class who are absent for 2 weeks got an A because they read. Your grade depend on the Blue Book and three exams. Her study guides are helpful, but VERY disorganized. The slides are hard to understand. Boring class. NOTE: if youre a person who always go to the bathroom in the middle of the class, sit at the back.
Professor Bolz is one of the sweetest people I have ever met and she genuinely cares! Her lectures are very engaging, if you choose to pay attention. She gives extra credit and the more you show up to class, the more opportunities there will be. Her class isn't the easiest, but with dedication and studying, you'll get the grade you deserve.
I took Professor Bolz for Abnormal Psyc. She is a very sweet and caring professor. As far as the class, we had two exams and a final. The main project was the term paper which was due just prior to the final. It was sort of an ongoing assignment with different segments to submit. I would definitely recommend her.
Worst psych teacher I've ever taken. I am with DSPS for my school and she invalidated my disability by telling me to make "holistic lifestyle choices." That is the last thing I would ever expect to hear from a psych teacher on mental disability. She seems to grade off of feelings towards the individual rather than their academic work.
Only graded on 3 tests and the bluebook, which is extra credit. This class was extremely boring to me, which was upsetting because i loved psychology in high school and was expecting it to be even better at a college level. Professor was kind but don't get up to go to the bathroom. Read the book, you basically teach yourself in her class
Professor Bolz is a very nice lady. There was never any homework. A lot of the grade is extra credit. If you do any of it, it is almost impossible to get anything lower than an A. The lectures were a little bit long and the slides were out of order, but still easy to follow as long as you listen.
Sabine is very passionate with what she teaches. She obviously loves her lectures and course material. If you want an easy A in her class, just focus on the study guide she provides for each test and use the blue book for extra credit. Her class really isnt hard as long as you study. Nice teacher but should work on making class more engaging/fun.
This class was awesome. There are no tests and quizzes; projects and papers determine your grade. Participate and show that you care about the material, and you will do well. Professor Bolz cares more about the quality of work you turn in and prefers long papers over short ones because they work to explain your ideas better.
Professor Bolz loves what she does and appreciates people who can think outside of the box. As long as you know how to thoroughly analyze, evaluate, and adequately explain your thoughts on any given topic, you'll pass. She is one of my favorite professors, and I couldn't recommend her enough.
She is a gem.
The in class course is online. She lectures the day the online assignment is due. She doesn't want you to write down her slides or take pictures. You are supposed to know all the material before getting to class. You have to pay for access code and teach your self basically. She is very nice although personally didnt like this class.
Bolz lectures a lot in her class and does not expect you to be writing notes in her class. She wants you to write the notes beforehand. She repeats herself a lot. Take the notes beforehand and then listen to lecture.
This class was very boring to me. She tends to lecture a lot and not have any activities, group work, or projects which I feel like would've definitely helped me and/or others learn the material better. Definitely had to teach myself the material before class otherwise I was super lost and even then was still struggling to understand the material.
Professor Bolz was a delight, you get out of the class what you put into it. Weekly online "quizzes" are assigned based on textbook, so prepare to read or risk failing. Study guides are given for each exam. You can miss a few classes but not everything is in the textbook so the lectures are worth it. She was very understanding and knowledgable.
I took her class last fall semester and her class is really easy to pass as long as you do your work and pay attention to the lectures youll pass. Her class was really interesting and informative and shes an amazing teacher to take for this course. Test are easy as long as you study and keep up with the class lectures youll pass
Professor Bolz was a very sub-par professor. All of her assignments were online and you had to teach yourself everything. Class times were a waste of time. She would go off-topic constantly and I never learned anything directly from her. I learned everything from the book and the website.
Want a class where the professor has you educate yourself and spends more time reviewing the inner working of the ear and the nervous system than actual psychology? This is the class for you! Half of the class ended up signing a petition agreeing with how bad the class was to bring to the dean. She is most likely the worst prof. I will ever have.
I took this class during the fall (online). Get ready to read a lot, I honestly didnt do much studying and got an A mainly because I had some background experience on psychology. For this class you are the student and the professor.
Don't take her class. Does not specify exam stuff. Like why spend hours reviewing study guides that aren't on tests and exams. Office hours don't help. She really read from the textbook during office hours.
This class was fun despite the constant stress of not knowing what assignments were coming up. it was for me to stay on track with my notes. Other than that, Professor Bolz, although a little all over the place, was very encouraging throughout the semester.
She is nice a person but when it comes to grading it gets a bit annoying. On her midterm exam she did give a clear study guide however when I took the actual exam, I was so confident that I will pass but she gave me a clear 6 out of 30 which I did not appreciate. I studied very hard for that mid term and because of her I almost failed her class.
Initially excited to take the class but now halfway in the semester am disappointed. The midterm did not relate to the study guide, no hw that relates or practices any material and the connect system only focuses on small parts of a chapter so you don't learn everything. The lectures are kind of lacking, if you want to learn more you're on your own
Very nice and sweet teacher. Decent workload. Learn a lot about Psychology! Good intro course.
Dont take this Professor unless you wanna fail. Shes all over the place and is not clear. Take a different Professor!!
The prof was really nice but she didn't really teach anything. It was mostly just looking through the powerpoint and then reading the chapter but the chapters were sooooo long. There wasn't a lot of homework but the exams weren't open-book so you actually had to study. She would provide you with a review for the exam tho.
worst teacher so far I've had. They don't create their own lectures nor assignments, everything is done through McGlaw which means it'll also force you to buy the textbook JUST do to have ACCESS to the HOMEWORK AND TESTS. What's the point in paying for the class if the teacher doesn't do anything not even the grading everything is done in McGlaw!!!
She was super irrisponsible
Took her for Psych 05 lots of work every week for macmillan interactive learning watching video then answering questions about 10 homeworks a week just for one class. No midterms or tests. But the final she gives a week to prep but the actual final is only open for a day so take advantage of the prep week have to come up a client and diagnosis
She was a good professor, just not much Psychology learning was done; We learned about the very very basics of psychology and did a lot of self-exploration and discussion boards, with more interpretation during the discussions than anything; it was an easy A.
There are many lectures but most of the material covered isn't used on the test.
Professor Bolz is a fairly easy professor. Most of your work is done through Smartbook and some paper assignments. There are a total of 3 tests which are multiple choice. The only downside of that class is that she doesn't teach the topics well during lectures. Most of your learning will come from reading the textbook and studying yourself.
This professor was rude at times. She gave lots of lectures and some did not have to do with criteria. Homework is online at home. Study through book not her slides.
Nice enough. Lectures didn't teach anything. Any information you get will be through smartbooks and textbook. Tests were mostly multiple choice with the exception of one or two short written portions. Easy class if you put in the hours outside of lectures.
Very sweet. I wasn't able to take a test one day and she worked with me to help me make sure I was able to take it. Very easy class and only had about 4 3 tests the whole semester (3rd was the final exam). I learned a lot in this class and she only has one homework assignment each week which is a smart book online that is only worth five points.
Her work is overall easy since she posts the notes on canvas. What's difficult is how confusing she is. Her lectures are confusing and she just goes off topic a lot. We ask a question and she starts talking about it, but never really answers it and gets to the point. The class feels fast, one day were on chapter 1 and then it becomes chapter 2 & 3.
Professor Bolz's class is a mixed bag - lectures can be hit or miss, but the textbook and online resources like unstuck AI really help fill in the gaps. With some effort, it's an informative intro course.
She's really sweet. Her lectures mainly just follow the PowerPoint and since the chapters are so long you gotta learn what's left out on your own time. The workload is pretty light, starting with one smartbook a week and then later changing to two a week. Overall not a really challenging course.
Professor Bolz is so sweet and caring! She's accessible outside of class if you need extra help, which you'll need if you don't have prior experience with psych because her lectures are unclear and tend to go off-topic. Fortunately, It's a pretty easy A if you participate, read the book, and turn in homework assignments on time.
She was sweet but often got off topic and would run out of time to actually teach. All the homework was through McGraw Hill and all the tests were from it too I believe. Tests were relatively easy if you did the homework.
This professor is the worst professor on this campus. She is so harsh with grading and doesn't answer emails. Questions aren't on the study guides and it's stuff we haven't even learned. WORST professor don't even bother taking her.
Overall good teacher; a lot of lectures and reading. It is kind of hard to understand her because she has an accent that is sometimes hard to understand. I think the class was pretty easy, and so were the exams. She does sometimes go off topic, and we aren't able to get through the lesson that was supposed to be completed that day.
