She's a great teacher, even though her lectures were pretty long, they are really interesting. If you take good notes and show up to class, you would be set. Everything you need to know for the tests are in her presentations. Very clear and straightforward teacher. I would highly recommend her!

Over all Stacey Peterson is a good professor. Her intro to psychology class is pretty easy. She has team quizzes and allows you to use your notes in the essay portion of exams. Though, she doesn't limit the amount of questions and discussion in the class which causes the class to be behind schedule. Also I would recommend you go to SI sessions.

She doesn't take attendance daily, however she does take attendance when there is a quiz or test in class. We never used the book. Almost all the info is in class notes, so I would still recommend going to class daily. The content is fairly easy. The hardest material is at the beginning of the semester. There are NO papers in the class. Also, she assigns groups that you work on all quizzes with. She had SI sessions which were extra credit if you went 3 times per unit. Side note, she says "right" a lot. Brownie points if you can count how many times she says in during one class period

She's a nice teacher, but there's just so much to do in a week. I've taken over 10 online courses and never had to spend 1+ hours on random videos, more than one assignment per week plus a quiz. Sometimes there are discussions and tests, but you still get all the rest of the work. It's just a lot for a 3 credit 1000 level course.

She's a very nice teacher. The majority of her class is lecture based on the material. There is a total of 4 tests. The material is reasonable in difficulty but I think she does a good job of explaining. She offers lots of extra credit so getting an A or B should not be too difficult. You must attend class because she does a lot of lectures.

Stacey is the reason I am choosing NOT to go into Psychology. Her lectures are fine, and she teaches well, but she always seems sort of bitter, and towards the end of the semester REALLY liked to talk politics and pretend it's legitimate psychology. We don't get prepared enough for the exams, and her "review" is just a sheet of the topics that's it

This was a fun class. The professor relates what we learn to our lives. The online work took little time each week but was based on the online lecture video. Good class.

While some of the projects took longer than others, Stacey was an easy grader. Just make sure you finish the assignments a day or two ahead of time and don't submit even a few minutes late.

She's so nice. Brought us donuts and candy on separate occasions! She really cares for all her students. She makes lectures interesting. Expect quizzes every week, they're pretty tough. And study for tests days in advance because they can be tricky. But overall a compelling class and would take another class with her if it was offered.

Prof is very nice, clearly cares about your success. If you miss a lecture, online lectures are available to catch up. Weekly quiz/homework, but they are not hard at all. Had a weekly 10AM Mon. class, and I never found myself dreading it. Textbook reading is not required at all, and lectures will give you all you need. Keep up and you will be fine!

Fun class with quite a bit of work, but not overwhelming if you stay on top of it. She gives you late passes for the semester and her lectures are organized and thorough. She is a generous grader, and the assignments are short and usually pretty easy. Recommended.

Very clear lectures (I'd watch them instead of reading the textbook, since they cover the same things). There's about 5 assignments per week and worth the majority of your grade. Exams are only like 25% of your grade so don't stress about them. You also get extra credit and 7 late passes. Lovely teacher!

She is extremely thorough with what needs to get done, how it applies to tests/real life, and providing examples. She makes everything clear and concise and is always ready to be there to help. She answers very quickly and is very lenient with at-home situations that affect learning. One of the best teachers I've ever had.

As a PSEO student, Professor Peterson has been amazing! She makes the material engaging and relatable to real life experiences. The first few units are tough, but she's always available for help via Zoom or provide extra resources. There are 2-4 assignments/quizzes per week, 3 exams, extra credit and 7 late passes. Couldn't recommend her enough!

I took this professor online and there are a few key things here. The class is easy but the lectures are straight up from 2015 which is 10 years old. She posts study guides for the exams but doesnt mention that it only covers 85% of the material until you ask. The exams can be rough but most of your grade comes from the coursework which is easy.

Stacey makes all of the assignments applied and I can see so much of what we cover around me. I feel like I can use the information and not just learn the stuff from the class. You do have to read and understand things though to apply them which can take some time. But there is a lot of feedback and no final exam! Just a project You get to pick!

I absolutely loveddd taking her class. The course is pretty straight forward and easy, as long as you pay attention and do your work. She gives about 1 assignment & 1 quiz each week, and an exam every couple weeks. You can tell she's very passionate about what she teaches and she cares about her students, which makes the class fun and engaging.

There's a lot of reading, but the lectures are really good and cover most of the topics. Overall a really easy class, especially with her giving 7 late work passes through the semester. On average, expect 1-2 quizzes and 1 assignment per week, and 3 tests over the semester. Very straightforward.
