She is a very nice professor. Her lectures are kind of pointless, but you have to attend or she takes points off of your grade. She gives out study guids that are exactly what will be on the test, so if you do them, you will get A's and B's. Impossible to fail!

She is a great teacher, human growth & development became my favorite subject. As long as you do the study guide you'll do fine. She take a point off your grade every absence I had a 95 A in her class but missed 5 days so I ended up w/ a 90! So I wouldnt suggest missing class often. She answers most questions w/ ease and is very friendly.

She seemed nice when the class started out, but once time went on-she became more strict and takes points off if you don't show to class once or twice, when on the syllabus it says you can miss 5 classes. She also will NOT bump up your grade if you're on the verge, like having a 69%, she won't bump you up to a 70%.

Very nice professor and great class. Consists of textbook usage and assignments from it, as well as 5 or short essays. The class is easy to pass as long as you put in a little effort. One thing that some may not like is that she wasn't heavily involved. She gave feedback on assignments, but mostly everything was done on your own.

The professor adequately set up the class and prepared you with what to expect from the entire semester day one. Feedback is provided on all written assignments if points were taken off. A lot of quizzes so you have to read each chapter. Study guide provided for the final ultimately setting you up for success if you do it.

Prof. Moerschbacher wasn't an awful teacher, but there are definitely better choices. The due dates for her assignments were always odd (ex: discussion posts due Tuesday every week), and some of the assignments seemed excessive. However, she did provide a useful study guide for the final, which is always appreciated!

This Professor is one of those who take an easy class and tries to make it more difficult. She is rude when asked questions and lied in a situation we had. The workload was heavy and she assigned unnecessary busywork. Busy work is for Kindergartners not adults who have other important responsibilities in their life aside from their education.

Definitely knows her stuff when it comes to psychology! I really learned a lot in her class. She does assign more homework than others but it really helps you take in the material. You will have to put some work in to get an A in the class. Also, her due dates are usually in the middle of the week or Friday rather than Sundays so keep that in mind!

Took face-to-face and be ready to take notes but she has her powerpoints online and gets everything from the book so you can take the notes at home. Just remember to turn homework in before its due since the program doesn't allow late assignments. Use the study guides for tests and you should be good. You get good vibes from the teacher.

Dr. Moerschbacher is very kind. All the test answers come directly from the textbook (minus the applied knowledge questions). If you have more specific questions on a topic she is willing to explain to the necessary depth. The class was a lot of reading, but it's very enjoyable and interactive.

Her tests are fairly easy if you study her study guides she provides. I didn't really read the textbook at all just because her lectures pretty much covered the chapters. 1 group project.

Please take a different professor if you have the option. She is not understanding whatsoever and takes very long to respond to emails. Very wishy washy when it comes to grading and getting grades put in at a decent time. Do not ever ask for extra credit or a second chance on an assignment. Multiple assignments a week sometimes 2+ daily.

She gives "pre-tests" before EVERY lecture; no problem except for the fact they're graded, and based on material she hasn't technically taught yet (She'll teach it day of). During the group project, if you miss a day, you have points docked off. You can miss 3 days, and each time you're late or you leave early it counts as "half-a-day". TAKE ONLINE

I took Professor Moerschbacher for Human Development this last semester, I really liked how involved she was with the class compared to other professors and their online classes. All her work is to be completed through Achieve and self-grades for each practice chapter test. She has about 4 writing assignments, nothing too hard to complete. Easy A.
