Dr. Ross was really one of my favorite teachers at Langara! he made psychology fun to learn! plus he used Mac Millian's Launchpad, which has a lot of practice tests and activities so that you remember the material easily (i strongly recommend you do them) Anyways, take his class for sure!

awesome prof, very funny and knows how to keep students engadged into the lectures. overall the content in the class wasn't that difficult only difficult thing was the exams but if you read the readings and listen to lecture you should be good. would definitely take any class with him as a professor.

Ross' course was a hard one, if I could go over and redo it I would choose another prof. He was a hard marker and I am in the psychology program and he gave me the worst mark I've ever recieved. No chance for extra credit with him. Be careful

Very easy and straightforward as long as you read the material. I took the mixed modes class and all of his tests are multiple choice. The course is more dependant on launchpad than the lectures (its more of just extra help in my opinion).

Ross's lectures are truly fascinating, and you can tell he's just a great, genuine guy. Definitely study the textbook, as his notes do not cover everything that will be on the exam. Even you don't do as well on exams, there are lots of other ways to make up for the grade! his dimples are also very cute lol

There was a lot of online assignments and they werent worth too much but they can add up. It is better to study off the textbook than to read his PowerPoint. His exams are mc and are based off the textbook.

great professor, make psyc so interesting and be sure to read the books for the exams, as long as you go to the class, read the books, understand the terms, should be a really simple A, all multiple choice questions on the exam, I was late for me final for 15 mins (and he still let me in). Sum it up, definitely GPA booster for me

Mixed Mode. Launchpad worth over 1/4 of the course. Exams are multiple choice + generous SONA bonus marks. Engaging/interactive lecturer. Encourages you to make connections to world outside classroom. He shares his experience working as a psychologist/academic. If you're not already interested in psych you will be. Kind, patient & openminded.

I had Ross for PSYC 1215 and he was great. There are three exams: two midterms and a final, and they are quite easy as long as you take good notes and study. Also, the LaunchPad assignments were quite easy, not to mention that you can gain an extra 4% for participating in research. I would recommend him to anyone planning to take this course.

You can be apart of psych studies and gain an extra easy %4. My course was half online and you do have to read a lot of content that is not covered in his lectures which is okay. There are some questions on his tests that are a little tricky. There are two midterms and a final. All not cumulative so each exam has less than three chapters.

he made psych 1215 so much easier than psych 1115. he's pretty comedic and makes class fun even during my evening class. exams are pretty straightforward. Not that hard if you study the terms. also the launchpad assignments are surprisingly simple, just watch videos and do practice assignments for marks. would take him again 100%

He made the class really fun, and his lectures stuck. Do all the online assignments for easy marks, and read the textbook for the exams (2 exams, final 30%, and 4 in-class quizzes). This class is very straight forward, and he'll be there to clear anything up for you. Great prof!

One of, if not the best Psych profs you could ever have at Langara. Fun, enthusiastic and tries his very best to make lecture material as interesting as he can! Not to mention he has great humor and is willing to help whenever he can! Exams were kinda tough, though I never bought the textbook.

Ross is a great prof who is very kind and helpful during and after class. The group project took a lot of extra time outside class, so be prepared for that, but you will learn some great experimental application skills.
