I had Sean for 2 classes, and I found him to be one of the best teacher I have had. He expected a lot out of his students. I had his friend Cory recently he was dull. Teaching take time and dedication and Cory forgot. Psychology is not hard if you spend the time necessary to learn it. Sean will help you the most if you do the work necessary.

Overall one of my fav profs so far at Macewan. Super funny and engaging. I actually got excited to come to class. Super clear guidelines and expectations for exams. Really good at thoroughly explaining things. Super passionate. Only thing is some of the material on his exams are not covered in class - only in the text book so make sure to read.

Really average teacher, tests are straight forward and as long as you read the textbook + look over in class notes should be an easy class. Lecture is somewhat bland, notes are posted online although sometimes they are different then the in class notes. Attend class if you want insight on the midterm, and final.

Great idea with it being online, and 1 hour in class. Open book quiz's since it is online, you get 3 attempts and they take the best grade. Can survive doing textbook study only, lecture videos didn't help me much. Activity n class is worth 1 mark each, if you don't go to any you'll lose quite the percentage.

Sean was great. There are weekly group assignments on Wednesdays so attendance is mandatory on those days. He was super helpful, gave great feedback, and was very accessible outside of class. Although this was a 8 am, he made it as enjoyable as possible.

I loved Dr. Rogers' class, even though I found the course to be intimidating; however, Dr. Rogers was very supportive and caring. There were weekly in-class group assignments, a presentation and a cumulative final exam. The final exam was taken only from broad concepts. Would definitely recommend taking this course with only him to others.
