He only teaches from the chapter learning objectives-with no class interaction. We sit and listen to him lecture and wait until we can leave. He gives BIG test curves & extra credit. It seems he really wants people to pass his class. Picture John Lithgow with no personality & you have Dr. Lamb.

He is a very nice man. He lets you use index cards on test and it helps a lot. He is also a very helpful teacher. I dont like how he does not really teach the class he just reads from a textbook and gives you learning objectives to fill out and he only choses like 10 to put on the test. If you cant learn from reading a text dont take his class.

If you want to take this course and make an A, take Lamb. If you want to actually learn something about Psychology then take someone else. Psychology is my major and I made the mistake of breezing through 201 with Lamb and not learning a thing. Hes an awesome guy, funny, nice, and open minded, but the class is WAY to easy.

Wicked easy teacher. Fun too. There is no reason not to get an A. I didn't even read the book and I got an A. Just write down exactly what he says for the reviews, you'll breeze by. If you want to major in psych, this may not be the best class for you though. Don't get me wrong, It's an interesting class but there is little demand to really learn.

easy class. He basically goes through the book during lectures and tells you what is on the test and they are a majority of the grade. He let us use notecards! there is a term paper which might kill part of a day to do... but thats about it. extra credit takes some time but is worth it. Hes a nice guy too, making the class enjoyable to be in.

Dr. Lamb is an awesome instructor with an infectious laugh. He does give you all the info you need for tests, but you still need to study. He gives so many EC opportunities that if you fail it's def your fault. Study the "essential" facts, do the EC and you will leave his class interested in psych and with an A.

This was the easiest class that I have ever taken. He just goes through the notes & he actually tells you everything that will be on the exam! It doesn't get any easier than that. And if you have an A at the end of the semester then he doesn't make you take the final! And you only do 1 paper, which you get to choose the topic.

My favorite prof. Dr. Lamb's dynamic 1 week class is a MUST take. Says you'll be there til 5? You get out between 10:30-12:30. Each day you have a quiz which is multiple choice and you can use notes. Keep him on track with which number you're on for definitions, though, as he can sometimes forget & skip one, but he tells you it's ESSENTIAL to know.
